The Cold Lot
We're nearing the end of October, and the evening temps are really starting to freefall into the 30's.
Won't be long till the 20's.
Then the teens.
Brrrrrrrrrr!
Going back several years here.......
For some time...... at least 2-3 years, maybe 4...... I was lead of the Wednesday night outdoor parking/security crew at the church we use to attend.
Week after week, year-round, we'd be outside:
-patrolling the parking lot
-walking the grounds
-directing traffic flow
-watching for any type of security/behavior issue
-providing help in any ways that we could
It was a blast to serve Pastor Brian Werner and his youth program, The Edge.
From a weather standpoint, some nights were much more pleasant than others.
Cool, crisp nights as a 20/30-something (like the one on my recent walk as a 40-something) were absolutely enjoyable out there in the asphalt expanse.
The stories and laughs shared during those 3 hours (6-9pm) each week were something special.
Thanks to these guys for your assistance week after week after week:
Jim
Mike
Bob
Larry
Phil
Cody
.....and so many others.
It was a joy serving alongside you!
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
Matt
