Some of our guests will always need our help, others can become more self-sufficient with our help. The hungers we feed here are not always for food. The daily social contact prevents loneliness for many, especially the elderly. Liz looks out for them, the volunteers look out for them, and they look out for us. Each day there are hospitality workers circulating in the dining room to help fill out papers, make referrals, just listen and sit quietly.
Volunteers are the ones who make the difference here.
They get it done day in and day out, five days a week, fifty-two weeks a year. They prepare the food, they serve the food, and they clean the kitchen and dining room. They talk, they listen, they care, day after day, week after week, year after year. They are a constant example of Christ's love, and they spread it around better than most, touching the people who need it more than most .
