Mercy Street was bumping with energy this past Saturday as parents and mentors came together for a morning of fellowship. They played games together, received specific training, and enjoyed good conversation as they shared a meal with one another. The theme of the day was "It Takes A Village," and each person spent time considering the vital role they play in raising the children of our village here in West Dallas. It was a beautiful morning at Mercy Street.
One service we offered this Saturday that hasn't been available during most of our events was English to Spanish translation. This made it possible for a number of parents to participate who haven't previously been given the opportunity. The coolest part about it was that our Student Leaders were the translators! They wore headsets with microphones and spread themselves out so that each talk would be translated for all to hear. It was a joy to sit back and watch our students play such a vital role in the ministry taking place that morning.
Our Student Leaders are always eager for opportunities to serve. If you have any specific needs where you could utilize some volunteers, let us know and we'll be there with smiles. They run after service opportunities like most kids run to Six Flags, and you will be blessing them by giving them the chance to bless you!
