Today I am guest posting on Kristin’s Veranda! I’m sharing about taking meals to others. Here’s a snippet:
If you’ve ever had someone prepare food for you when you
were sick, you know what a blessing the “ministry of food” can be! I
love being able to bless people in need with meals, whether they are (or
one of their family members is) sick, grieving, moving, or welcoming a
new baby.
I thought I’d share with you today some tips for successfully bringing meals to others!
-Ask them.
This
might seem kind of unnecessary, but it is important to talk with the
family first and find out if a meal would be a blessing. Ninety-nine
percent of the time they’ll say yes, but this also gives you a chance to
find out if they have any food preferences (i.e., vegetarian),
intolerances, or allergies and what day/time they would appreciate the
meal.
