Salvation Army
Stopped by the Salvation Army Church today here in Cheyenne. Met the Captain who was preparing his Easter week messages. Didn't realize there were still actual Salvation Army Churches left around. It's a nice little brick church that holds worship services every Sunday morning at 10:30 AM. I stopped in to check on their soup kitchen. They feed a lunch each day to people in Cheyenne who were in need. I was introduced to one of their volunteer managers who then introduced me to their cook. They have someone in charge of the meal everyday. Makes it much simpler to be involved in. The Soup Kitchen in Gillette, you are responsible to choose what to cook and cook it all. I asked the lady in charge if they were in need of any volunteers to help on any day. Turns out that she has absolutely NO help on Friday's. Guess where our staff will be every Friday? That's right, Chili's! lol, We will be helping serve the needy down at the Soup Kitchen. I don't know if any other churches take a day or not but we will and I, as lead pastor, as well as our staff will be the first to serve. If we want a serving church we better be willing to serve. Pray for us that we can make a difference to the Salvation Army as well as those who come in who are in need. I think it will be very cool to close our office each Friday so we can head down to the soup kitchen to serve. Being the hands and feet of Jesus is not always convenient but it's always right.
