Friends
Another opportunity has come up to serve the needy. I thought I would send this
out and see if there is anyone interested.
Foundation for the Homeless hosts IHN (Inter-faith Hospitality Network), which
is a network of Churches in the Austin area who open their doors to host
homeless families one week at a time. We don't have the space and facilities
needed to do this, but IHN also needs volunteers to help with their hosted
fasmilies during the week, atht e Church they are staying at.Each evening the
group of families (usually no more that 15 people) need to be fed Dinner.
If we decided to help we would be responsible for 1 Dinner and could volunteer
to help in various ways:
1. Prepare dishes to be heated and served that night2. Show up to serve the
meal and clean up3. Donate the cups, napkins and plates used
The next time slot which they are having difficulty filling is Saturday April
3rd, 5:30 - 7:30. This is the night before Easter, so you can see why it is not
filled and why they are desperate to fill it.
It is only 2 hours, and you could choose your way to volunteer. Hosts are also
needed from 7:30 - 8:30 if you wanted to come later or stay later.
Let me know what you think.
Craig
