We were so lucky to have received a great home recipe of beef broccoli for this past Sunday. It was so wonderful to have so much healthy broccoli in this meal! It was an especially hot day this day, so we had plenty of beverages at this meal: fresh made iced tea which was especially popular, lemonade and of course the coffee, water and vitamin water. The sanitary packets came with tooth paste, a tooth brush and other amenities. We were so happy to receive donations of masks to also hand out.

The wonderful volunteers went out on April 19, 2020 to serve an amazing Italian dinner for the guests. Each dinner came with spaghetti and meatballs with a sausage, salad, soup, dinner roll, cookies and also a hygiene kit for people to take home with them. They really loved this - it was delicious. Thank you to our local businesses in Temple City for giving us a great price for this take away meal.
This past Sunday, April 12, 2020, was a really special dinner. During the Corona Virus, helping the homeless is so important, since life for those without stable living has changed and the homeless continue to be one of the most needy in our society. Our Sunday dinners have not stopped during this difficult time. It is certainly different, but making sure that people have a warm meal is imperative to our group. We didn't get to sit down together at tables and have pleasant chats around the dinner table, but we did make to-go meals with a little Happy Easter surprise. We also were able to exchange encouraging words and share a smile as our packets were handed out to our gracious visitors. Each one of our guests received a healthy meal and a special Easter bag with candy and a roll of toilet paper (which is a prized win in today's COVID-19 day). Below, is one of our plates that were made with loving care and were provided to families and individuals. Everybody received a healthy serving of ham, mashed potatoes, green beans, dinner roll and butter, and one cookie for dessert.
