2Coats; Equipping individuals to compassionately share their time, talents, and gifts as Christ cared for those in need.
Each month here in Grundy Center, there is a mobile food bank. I believe the North East Iowa Food Bank supplies food for many people here in town, throughout the county and beyond. 2Coats has been giving away coffee and doughnuts and juice as an outreach for the past few months.
Last month I had a chance to meet V, a wonderful lady who shared some of her story and I with her. Turns out she needed a couch. We had one, so we packed it up and were able to bring it to her this past Tuesday. The boys and I made our way to Dumont, Iowa; "small town, big heart".
As we moved the couch in and began to visit some more, I learned the couch was going to help her to invite more people into her home to love on them. She puts on a pot of tea, and has guests over from the other local apartments. She makes them food and they talk. She is ministering to them, being a friend, providing some light and sharing his love. Way to go V, you are doin' the stuff. What an honor to be apart of that!
