Homeless ministry with New Community Covenant

Last weekend, Alli and I volunteered to spend the evening passing out food and warm clothing to the homeless in Logan Square (the area surrounding the Warming Center, a small food pantry run by the church). Although we may have complained about it all day until we went...I am really glad that we did it. There were about 13 of us that served that night. The night started out pretty slow...there weren't all that many people out in the areas that the group travels to but by the end of the night, we had given out all of the bags of food we had packed. Some people were just gracious to get a meal while others really wanted to talk. It was interesting what they chose to share about. Some even offered to pray for us! I'm sure I'll do it again at some point. Anyone interested in joining me??
