Ready to Serve! 1.26.13 Wash & Dry

Our first servolution of 2013 was a huge success.  Our plan was to to pay for people's laundry to be washed and dried. 

We brought a lot of quarters.  Our day started at 9:30a.m. with meeting at the church.  We did a quick Q&A and discussed what our goals were and how to approach people. We prayed then headed to the laundromat. 

When we arrived there was only one person there.  But no big deal.  As we pulled into the parking lot we noticed a self-serve ice machine.  So as a part of the servolution that day we decided to pay for bag & bulk ice.  Lots of people got ice early in the day.  So we served people with the chill of ice :)  The laundromat began to pick up.  The most remarkable thing occurred while we were there; the previous day there  was a fire at a town home in Crawfordville, FL and the family was busy trying to salvage what was left of their things so they loaded their friend's car full of smokey clothes that needed to be washed, dried and folded.  The friends of the family whose home burned brought the clothes to the laundromat.  They had no idea that Summit Life Church had been directed by God to start a servolution at the Laundromat that very day!  We, the body of Christ, were able to pay for most of the washing and drying.  We helped them unload the car, separate the clothes, put them in the washing machines, transfer them to the dryers and fold them.  Then we helped them load it all back up into their car.  While all this was going on we were also helping other families as they came into the laundromat.  We were sharing the love of God with people through a simple act of kindness. 

It was an extraordinary day.  When you pay for people's laundry and see the expression on their face, its awesome!  Many people were touched by the kindness of God, shown through us.  We are bringing a Revolution to Wakulla County through a Servolution.  We are embarking on a journey that will touch the four corners of the earth.  This servolution has already reached as far away as Tampa with a testimony shared by one of the families who we served.  God is ultimately in control.  All we need to do is listen and follow where He is leading.  Our next servolution will be February 23, 2013.  Join us! Don't let anything hold you back!
