Feeding Needs for Every Sunday
We try to provide the homeless with a main meat item, a side item, dessert, drink, and a to-go-bag meal.
Think of food choices that will stretch far for the money and the large group we feed.
As it gets hotter this summer, we need more water. Anyone who has a 5 gallon cooler, can fill it with ice and water much cheaper than bottled water for the main meals.
Label your utensils, containers, pots, with your name so they don't accidentally go home with someone else when cleaning up. If you get someone elses things on accident, please return them the next time you serve.
In the winter months, bottled water freezes up and is useless to drink. Bring instead a 5 gallon container of water or hot chocolate.
WANNA GIVE YOUR TESTIMONY TO THE HOMELESS AND CHANGE LIVES?
If so, it can be your testimony, someone you know, or just some inspirational words you would like to share before the meal & prayer. If you're interested, just let one of the senior volunteers know at thegathering before the prayer over the meal.
God Bless You for Having the Courage to Share God's Love
