The River Church Community

During Kindness San Jose, the River's youth also served.  Kyle typed up a short bit on what they did. I have added it below.

"The youth divided into three teams to show love to our local community.  The first team, lead by Chris, Lis, Wil, and Jesse went to the Guadalupe Park to hand out water, sport drinks, and fruit snacks.  The second team, lead by Amy and Lauren went to Ryland Park to hand out popsicles.  The third team lead by Kristy and Kassy picked up dog poop and handed out dog treats.  Overall the teams had a great time bonding together and meeting new people and animals along the way.

Although I wasn't with the youth, I was with Lawrence and Cindy trying to hand out the Sunday Mercury newspaper to neighbors across the street from the Ministry Center.  We met many people but our conversations were few as people rushed to and from the Japan Town farmers market.  As Cindy and I walked back to the Ministry Center we met a family that once attended The River years ago.  We had a great conversation and it was exciting to share how The River has evolved since they attended."
