Bitter/Sweet :-) :-(

Yesterday FEED presented for Bridgestone/Firestone in Lavergne. It was kind of last minute, I have to admit, but it was really special for many reasons. One was that we all pretty much figured that this was gonna be our last presentation as the FEED team of '08. I know, I know, pretty depressing but we had to face it. Now of course this doesn't mean that FEED is done, heck no! Feed will never be complete and there is so much work left to be done. We started it and it's up to others to receive the "torch of Feed" and continue our mission until Jesus comes back. So, presenting for Bridgestone was a bitter/sweet deal but I feel like it was one of our strongest presentations. We all hit what needed to be said and I really felt like we were doing it for the first time again(only better), it was an awesome feeling. I felt like we were strong, clear, commanding, and persuasive. At the end we really got to sit down w/ Shelly, one of the people we were presenting for and talk to her a little bit about how they could still be involved for years to come. We wanted to make sure that we started a great relationship w/ Bridgestone that would help other teams in the years to come. She had to admit to us that she really didn't think they would be able to donate much to us at all, but that she was going to do all she could to get the word out about us and pass it on to other business and companies. She was really sweet and actually took a few food drive bags w/ her because she wanted to help out w/ the food drive in her own neighborhood. Feed '08 isn't done yet, but we are coming to a close and we need your help now more than ever. I know we keep saying that ,but we really mean it now! It's gonna take the community of Murfreesboro to come together and fight for a cause bigger than ourselves. Come on guys, lets finish this thing right!
