You have to be a walker in NY!

Long day of walking everywhere! We started the morning out by walking to the subway to get to downtown. Love the transit system here, you can get anywhere by bus/subway/train/taxi.



Our first stop was at Energy Kitchen. The owner, Anthony, is a friend of the family and is a supporter of Saved By God's Grace. He was kind enough to carve out a few minutes from his busy schedule to meet with us and offer to help in anyway he can. He's been spreading the word about the ministry by attaching our brochures to delivery orders. Love to see how people help in their own unique ways with their gifts and talents.

After a delicious lunch at Energy Kitchen, thanks Anthony, we walked around Central Park. We did get rained on a bit but what a great place-all that green in the middle of the concrete jungle! Then it was a walk through Times Square. Lots of people rushing about their lives.

I wonder if the people walking around have a connection to anyone? Are they feeling alone? The spiritual poverty here in the US is so prevalent and I'm thankful for the outreaches of churches like Agape. They are living here and reaching out to their neighbors with the living waters of Jesus Christ.

If God isn't leading you to support Saved By God's Grace please take that first step to find an organization near you to give your time to. Reaching out and letting others know they are not alone, there is hope for them and there is a purpose for their life - that's spreading the gospel! We'll be doing more of that tonight at another street meeting in the park!
