At our church, we have a ministry called "The Caring Ministry".  It is where a member of the church goes once a month to visit a person in a nursing home or home bound members.   I choose a woman that I knew from my newspaper carrying days.  She was a lady who was on my paper route.  She lives at home but can't drive.   So I wanted to do something nice for her.  So my boyfriend and I took her to church.  She hadn't been there in sometime.  When it was time for people to greet one another, it was nice to see people come up to her from across the church and hug her.  Tears came to my eyes for I knew I could see that she enjoyed going to church today. 

Then we took her to dinner where my daughter works as a waitress.   I could see that my friend was enjoying this outing.  She has stories to tell. like telling my daughter that she worked in this very same restaurant but she had to wear a poodle skirt when she had to waitress.  Next week is her birthday and I think I will surprise her with a cake.
