--Justin&I have volunteered for a couple of different volunteer projects lastely! It has been fun to get involved in things that Luke can help out with too! 1) we have been volunteering at our church in Lubbock- Experience Life- we have been working in the youth group and teaching bible study classes. We have been going to our church for almost a year now and we love it! =)! We feel old listening to young teens talk haha...oh how dramatic junior high was haha! 2) we are also volunteering at the south plains food bank. Luke can help make grocery bags full of groceries to pass out to families who need food. Its a great organization to get involved with. It only takes up 1 day a month. (Usually a couple of hours on the weekend) And its a family activity that we can all do together. 3) and finally, we are volunteering at LeLand animal shelter in Lubbock. We get to play with animals and work on commands and social interactive skills. Luke loves animals and he loves playing with puppies. Also, through these we are earning volunteer points. Right now, at Disney World, when you earn a certain amount of points as a family, you get a 3 day free vacation to Disney World!!!
We like volunteering--Ghandi's quote is so true. I do not want to just exist in this world- I want to work hard and use every talent God gave me. Life can never be taken for granted. I like that we are also teaching Luke about giving back to the world. We have been sooo busy, but, we have still made time to work hard and donate our time to organizations that need us. We have met some wonderful people too!
