Homeless Shelter Sunday

Breakfast at the Shelter

OPC Youth,

Now is the time for breakfast! Join us the first Sunday of every month to fix breakfast for the homeless families of Santa Maria. If you are interested in serving, read further...

The "Feed My Sheep Principle"

It's always good to start with a principle, a rule to live by. Why would you even consider doing this? Is there good reason to get out of bed early on a Sunday morning to serve those less fortunate (other than pancakes of course)?

"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' Matthew 25:37-40

There are many more good reasons to serve, but this is a good start.


Bring Only These

1. Your Time - Be prepared to show up at 6:30 AM Sunday morning. Your time is valuable, use it wisely.
2. Your Talent - Do you know how to cook breakfast? Yes? Great, let's talk about the menu and plan to use your talents. We'll do this every month and there will be many opportunities to share your culinary skills. Can't boil water? No problem! We'll share our secrets to the best breakfast in town. Come and learn.
3. Your Treasure - Be ready to make a small "free will" donation. If you don't got it, cool. If you are so led, give.

A Few Last Things

1. We need to be done by 8:00 AM so that the folks can run off to church. We'll feed up to 100 guests.
2. Please feel free to mingle and eat breakfast with the residents. They appreciate your efforts.
3. Once we clean up we'll head off to church and attend the 10:00 service as a group. The motley breakfast crew in the back pew.
4. Remember who we are serving (see quote above if you are not sure). We'll make a breakfast that you would serve to your most valued friends. Think Kay's Kitchen, not Denny's. This is a very special treat.

Peace...
