service saturday

14 Dec

Today was a FANTASTIC day serving the homeless in Santa Ana. About 20 students met at Calvary at 8am and prepared 200 sandwiches, which were the main course in 100 brownbag lunches.

We drove down to Main Street and Broadway and had no difficulty at all finding people who were hungry. There were probably 75-100 people down there who lived right there on the streets of Santa Ana. We handed out every bag we brought, and not only that, our students were so quick to start conversations with the people they met. Some of the students just sat and talked, others even prayed with the people they met. We heard a ton of stories, and our hearts broke for many of them.

I’m so proud of our kids. They want to go back as often as possible. I think we can arrange that :)

Thank God for what he’s doing at Calvary, not only with the renewed passion for community involvement, but for STUDENTS who are mature enough to engage those in our city who are less fortunate than them.

Well done, moms and dads!
