Lent Day 6

happy monday...

KAIROS is a micro church at the tampa underground...

we are small, but growing...

our calling is to serve as volunteers with LifePath Hospice in order to share the love of Jesus with those who are dying -- many are widows and widowers -- in the poorest zip codes of the city of tampa...

KAIROS is one of my ministry passions -- helping to release ministers into the matthew 25 places of our city...

embracing the sick, the dying, the overlooked, the lonely, the poor in spirit...

it all started one sunday when brian said he felt god calling us to a greater commitment to the widows and orphans of our city...

the holy spirit pierced my heart -- i know many widows and widowers -- maybe we can seize an opoortunity to serve...

our rally cry is colossians 4.2-6...

KAIROS speaks of "timely time" -- making the most of every opportunity -- especially with our patients who generally have six months or less to live...

today, i introduced a KAIROS man [jimmy] to his first new patient -- mr julio...

it was one of my most amazing hours as of late...

jimmy was awesome!

he connected...

love overflowed...

he is bilingual and connected in a way that i had never been able to connect...

he is a young hispanic male and he gave mr julio a highly treasured, but missing, gift -- jimmy showed him honor and respect as an elder...

mr julio melted in the exchange...

i could almost feel the healing in his soul...

the spirit was so palpable -- i could feel god in the air...

i could not have been any happier for him [or any prouder of jimmy]...

yea god -- another win for the kingdom...

mr julio wants jimmy to come every other week and share the journey with him...

way to go god [and jimmy]!!!

this is KAIROS -- making the most of god-given moments -- opportunities to shine the irrational and awe-inspiring love of jesus into some very dark places...

join me in celebrating this evening...

pax et bonum...

if any of you out there in tampa land want to seize the moment -- why not consider KAIROS -- we have room for a few more jimmys...
