So for the past 10 weeks Chris and I have been "organizing" the meals for a marriage course taught at our church on Sunday nights. There have been 21 couples in the course which is really cool... but cooking for 42 people has been a learning experience for me. The hardest thing though is that we thought that we would be finding people to volunteer each week and we'd just be organizing. But, I'm not very good at finding volunteers, as it turns out. So we have been very busy on our weekends. Saturday has typically been spent shopping and prepping food. Chris or I are always working the services on Sunday mornings, and then we're back all afternoon and evening cooking, serving and cleaning up. While this has given us a great sense of accomplishment and fullfillment in serving others, we are very ready for a break and very happy to find ourselves at the end of this session.
What on earth will we do with all of our rediscovered time?! I'm sure it will quickly get filled up with something else. But for now, it is SO nice to think of sleeping in on Saturday morning.
