| What: Prepare a meal for the patrons at the Salvation Army Shelter on I street When: The second Saturday of each month from 5:00 to 7:00
Details: Your group can go or several groups can go together. The food is already there all you will need to do is to prepare it and serve it to the homeless people that are staying at the shelter. Bless the food and feel free to join in dining with the residents. The residents will sign the clean-up sheet and help clean up, this is a good way to get to talk to the residents. We are there to serve them and show them that they are in our thoughts and prayers. Most often there are children there, they always like extra attention. The residents live there temporarily, but please invite them to church and remember they may need a ride.
In the past this has been a wonderful opportunity to get out of your comfort zone and to get to know some people you would not ordinarily come into contact with. It is a great opportunity to teach your children to serve and to broaden their World-view. Several shelter patrons have come to church and LIFE groups after being invited and you may get the opportunity to share the Gospel with someone.
