DWB Dream

Meet DWB Team #9 - Jusup, myself, Yiu Cheong, Brian, and Linda (L-R). Shortly after moving to NYC, I heard about an outreach to the homeless here. It is called Don't Walk By. Over the course of five consecutive Saturdays, teams of 3-12 go out to look for the homeless on EVERY street and subway route in Manhattan! Thus far, I've been able to be a part of every single outreach they've had ... and it's been an AWESOME time for love, service, and learning about my community.

Two interesting things came about today related to DWB and The Bronx. First was the passage I was up to in my study of Matthew was from Chapter 18. This essentially is half of the theme of DWB. The lost sheep are here in The Bronx; I am one as are all of my neighbors. Secondly, on the train ride in, I started dreaming about a DWB Bronx, so I asked if this outreach will spread to the other boroughs. I was told that next year, if possible, that there will be outreaches in the other boroughs too. Good news! So cool to see Abba intimately knowing the desires of my heart and putting them so apparently before me.
