Love it. All the gatherings I go to are self-serve, which isn’t easy to do when you have four young kids with you.

Handwashing dishes seems like a great way to bond … but I’m too spoiled by the dishwashing machine.

Lovely shot of these women. Serving others is such a valuable thing.

I, too, wish I were that flexible. :-)

Think how many of our world’s troubles could be solved if everyone, regardless of faith/philosophy, dedicated part of one day per week to selfless service.

There’s nothing like a little team work to get the job done. But I’d much prefer to stand at a sink to wash dishes than crouch like that!
