I am excited, nervous and scared all at the same time.
It is through a service called Family Promise. I will spend the night at the church with a family who is homeless. I'm not sure what I'll be doing or what they will need. But I'll be there.
Post to come tomorrow. I hope I can teach them something, help them out somehow and who knows, I may even take something away from this experience.
