Had a great evening with Luke's grandparents.  They invited the life group over for dinner.  All the food was amazing and from their garden.  But Thankful for the amazing time after dinner listening to Gene share his favorite bible verses and why it is important to know scripture.

Day #111
Not a Garage day goes by that I don't think back to that "God day"...when I told pastor j.p. and pastor Brad I would go with them to check out the Garage and see if it was a ministry Grace church wanted to connect with...at the time kids and I weren't on the same page and I would have never said yes on my own....but God pushed me that day and I basically jumped into a night of complete outside my comfort zone fun! Thankful Hod wants in s position where we MUST rely on Him... Where would I be without The Garage kids in my life? Praying for Jamal tonight!
