Service is not something that happens easily or is rewarded easily. It takes a lot of effort and time to perform acts of service, and it is not something that you can be paid back for. Of course, you cannot be paid back with money or extra favors. Service is rewarded with the feeling of doing something right and being able to give back to your community. That’s why I love participating in Grace Place services. I am able to give back to my community by making meals for the Grace Place House. Making meals is something I enjoy, but knowing that this meal is going to people who actually need it makes it more enjoyable. The girls I perform this service with and I always choose meals we like the best to make for them. My favorite part of the service is being able to hand deliver the meals to the Grace Place House. I like seeing the happy faces of the woman and children who live in the house when they see the meals. The feeling I get is something that could not be replaced with anything else. That is why I love giving back to my community and helping make meals for the Grace Place House.
