Endurance

What was the one thing about this chapter that most stuck out to you?

For me it was:

"I think it's really cool that God chooses to use us to alleviate suffering. God hears the cries of the oppressed. If we open our hearts, we can be the answer to their cries for relief and hope, so their enduring will not be in vain."

Take a moment to read Proverbs 31:8-9, and don't forget to answer the questions in the book.

What to bring...

Here's the lists I promised in terms of what some needs are in Boston:

Starlight:
-blankets
-big men's clothing
-travel deodorants
-hats, gloves, scarves

Cradles to Crayons:
-New school supplies 
-Kids' clothing sizes 11/12-14/16
-New underwear sizes 2T-14/16
-Newborn clothing size 0-6 months
-Cribs
-Boppy pillows
-Diaper bags & new bottles
-Baby carriers/slings
-Birthday gifts for kids ages 1-2 & 9-12

Jubilee House:
"We are doing a park out reach for kids ... so any small toys and items we can give away as prizes as well as craft items we can do projects with.

The other outreach we are doing is called "Soul Spa"... Girls for Change is is an evening program geared to JR HIGH girls to keep them off the streets. It is a 6 week program on Monday night with a Bible study on Tuesdays. So any girly type give aways for about 24 girls would be great!!"

yeah...I have no idea what a "boppy pillow" is either. : )

Compassion

George Muller "realized the mission field God had in mind for him was right in front of him. God wanted him to minister to everyone he met." What are needs that you see around you? What are ways that you could serve others now?

I think it's pretty cool that the vision that George Muller had of taking care of children didn't "die with him", as Zach puts it. What's a dream or idea that you have that you want others to catch on to and run with?
