My journey this week takes me to a person with a servant's heart, Gary Strunk.
It is rare to find someone who is helping others without asking for something in return. Arriving in San Marcos in 2013, Strunk and his wife Nancy began to share their hearts and time on the Hays County Salvation Army Advisory Committee. That is how I first met him. Appointed Chairman, Strunk organized a drive for replacement furniture for families who had lost their homes due to fire or flood; served as a bell ringing/kettle site coordinator at Christmas and helped establish the reading program at Riverview Apartments. As a volunteer tutor, he listened to children read using the curriculum from the American Bible Society at Riverview Apartments and Redwood Baptist Church during the 10 weeks of summer.
“I work on commission — the great commission, giving God all the glory," Gary Strunk said about his service. "He gave us hands to help one another. He gave us hearts to love one another. Obedience to God requires love and service from the heart.”
