We meet at the church at 1. We then drive to Asbury and meet with the Activities Coordinator. At 1:30 we go up to a floor of the building and start asking if people want to go. We go to a room, knock on the door, and if they answer, we go in the room, say hello and ask if they would like to go to the event downstairs. Usually it is a Christian string ensemble. (Not at all connected to our church) If they do want to go, we wheel them to the elevator and take them down to the "events center." We stay for the performance and bring them back to their floor at the end. They have a tag on their wheelchair that says what floor they are on.
It sounds simple, but it serves them so greatly. In Matthew 25:40, it says, "And the King will answer them, ' Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.' "
We are serving Christ in one small way as we serve the residents of Asbury.
