Volunteer

For most of this year I have volunteered my free time and I enjoy doing so. After working in stressful positions, I decided to do something that I enjoy doing without stress, I am now assisting a manager at a local food pantry. I have watched this man work with people that most people see as invisible and often neglect. The homeless, the poor, and yes, even the rich. After being in a place where you needed no one and are suddenly in need of the simplest things in life such as food, clothing, and a hug from anybody you start to appreciate everything.

I volunteer for a man who puts his life on hold everyday for others, he never complains, never finds faults, never judges, and just loves all of the people that come to the food pantry. He always tell the volunteers to make them feel like they are on top of the world, make them feel welcome, let them know that we are excited to serve them

His title is not that of an executive, but he is the finest  I've ever known. To see him in action is amazing! He walks in power with just enough humility and grace. He extends a hand daily and a hug that will mend a broken heart. He takes time to greet each volunteer daily with a smile and a hug and he always shares encouraging words with us. I must say...He treats me the same way he treats the other volunteers.

Who is this man? My husband Joseph H. Neal Sr.

Come by Agape Care and Share and see for yourself. The address is 3650 Patterson Ave. Winston-Salem, NC 27105.
