Many hands make light work.


We invited the student council to come for Sunday dinner after District Conference a couple of weeks ago. We filled our large crock pot with chicken, potatoes and carrots before we left for church. We thought we would feed about 10 including ourselves. As we left from our student council meeting we found 4 more youth waiting at the door. We learned that the invitation for dinner got passed around in a manner of about 3 minutes to them as well. We said great! By the time we got home we had a few more join us adding up to 18 including ourselves for dinner. I hoped that the parable of the fishes and the loaves of bread would happen to this meal as well. We boiled a few more potatoes and a few more pieces of chicken. The youth helped make a cake and homemade applesauce. I worried about the food not tasting as good as I like it to taste, but they were all happy to be their with each other and share in our little feast. It was awesome!
