Service



Happy Friday ya'll.

Make each day count...even Fridays. ;) Whether you work for a company or for yourself or do not "work" in the traditional sense- there is always an opportunity to serve. It is our duty to ensure that we are maximizing these opportunities...The smallest step to making a difference in the world.

Challenge for today: Find an opportunity to "serve" someone today. I'll let you be creative about how this looks but keep in mind, that service is an action born out of a pure heart (not obligation).

Share below in the comments section how you were able to leave your mark in someone's life today!

Grace peace and love,
Gia

Sights (and sounds) of Guyana

Unforgettable. The experience was fulfilling, draining, hope-inspiring all at once. I have no regrets about anything, other than I probably could have saved a bit harder so that I had more money to help out more. My goal going there was not to buy souvenirs or even see the country, it was to serve. I was blessed to serve and even see a teensy bit of the city. Next time, we'll carve out some time to enjoy the beauty of the country. Experience now tells us that we probably should have worked in a day of rest.

Here are a couple of the sights (and sounds) from my trip.

Enjoy! you  may have to turn it up at the end because the sound gets really low on the "thank you".



By the way, feel free to share this post or the link. We are looking for more volunteers, particularly as we expand into The Bahamas for 2013. 

To get the project ready, we need:
Administrative volunteers (help with planning, recruiting, fundraising, organizing, budgeting)

Once the project is launched, we will need
Academic mentors
"buddies" (someone to be a friend)
Specialty services volunteers
Administrative volunteers
Spiritual mentors

Be the change you want to see in the world!




Grace peace and love,
