Community Gifts

This morning when we were at prayer with some of the guests of the soup kitchen, we focused on the gifts we each bring to the community. One person commented on his gift of hospitality and then remarked that coming to the Capuchin Soup Kitchen was a different experience. He made the point that it is not just a place to eat and pick up clothing and services, but that it has a spiritual component he has not found anywhere else. He feels as though he belongs to a ministry that extends itself into the community. It made me think, "We must be doing something right!"
