Galatians 6:9 NCV We must not become tired of doing good. We will receive our harvest of eternal life at the right time if we do not give up.
A 12-year-old boy who has overcome leukemia was offered anything he wanted by the Make-A-Wish foundation.
His wish? To take a food truck around his community and feed those who helped him during his fight against the disease.
Lucas Hobbs came up with the idea while at Minneapolis Children’s hospital during a time when it was hard for him to eat. He watched a movie called “Chef” about a father and son who operated a food truck and it spurred his idea to feed others.
“When I was sick, people brought me food from our church, and it was really nice of them,” Lucas told the news outlet. “It kinda got me thinking about my Make-A-Wish, so I asked my parents if I could use my wish to help others.”
Make-A-Wish contacted the Minnesota Food Truck Association and together planned a five-stop tour for Lucas including a homeless shelter, senior center, church and the Minneapolis Police Department.
“The fact that there is somebody, anybody, much less a 12-year-old, that is so willing to give outward,” John Elder, a spokesman for the Minneapolis Police Department, told the StarTribune. “I was honored on behalf of the department to help facilitate it.”
Lucas says he plans to continue to serve food to the community through a food truck.
“I don’t know what to say, but it makes me feel really, really happy for what i’m doing,” Lucas told KARE 11.
