Every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday Loaves & Fishes opens its doors, welcoming the line of people waiting outside. Friendly volunteers register the guests. A hot meal is served from our ministry kitchen. After eating, guests move to a comfortable seating area where Al or Stephanie welcome them and offer a short Bible study. An invitation to receive Jesus is always given, and we pray with anyone who needs healing or simply needs prayer.
Backstage in the warehouse, 10 to 20 volunteers arrive around 10:00 a.m. to put food boxes together and set up for the arrival of 30 to 100 guest families. It’s a big project and requires the help of many hands. We provide guests with a box of groceries, bread, frozen meat, and personal care items.
