High five to the team of fellow volunteers I just spent the past few hours with at Elevation's Union campus, setting up for Summer Blast. No job was too small, from separating hundreds of sheets of foil for Tuesday's craft to picking gum off high school tables...yuck.

Time is gift. Giving your time for such things is an offering Lord. What appears to be small and tedious is a sweet, fragrant offering to the God we serve. Many of you I know, many of you I didn't know...but it was my pleasure. Thanks for reminding me what service is all about.
