The homeless meal went off without a hitch today; sadly, with a reduced head count!

in #photography5 years ago (edited)

The homeless meal went well except the homeless numbers were reduced. The mayor has raided 30 locations and stolen all their belongings, so he is hurting the people least able to defend themselves!

That said we had about 150 instead of 300. We will take the extra to the Denver House, so it won't be wasted.

Here we are setting up:

This is the roaster lineup:

Line forming up for food:

This sweet Lady made 200 burritos faster that the line could move:

We still had a line 30 minutes after we started serving:

The most important thing we do...this is Billy, praying with some people at their request.

Billy is the Man I began this ministry with, we started with one roaster and a kettle of mac and cheese. We fed 60 that day.

The weather was perfect today, and the homeless were in good spirits. We sent food home with the minister that never misses a feed, and the homeless love him. He was surprised!

My brother and I were flashed, while we were planning for next month. A girl was given a new shirt, so she took off the old one; and put on the new one. Surprise, No picture; sorry, LOL!

Everyone was full when they left. All in all, it was a very good day today!

Sort:  

haha! that girl took her shirt off right in front of you! lol..what do you mean the mayor stole all their possessions? Where were the people at?
What's the deal with the sideways photos? that sucks.

Yop, she skinned down to put on a new shirt.

The mayor is a RINO, so he claims he is helping the Homeless, while he has his goons go into their camps and remove everything they own. He has it sent to the dump....

The sideways photos are steemit. I do not have the control of how they display downloaded photos. I tried to rotate them, and reload the new one, but most of the time it still comes out wrong.

Wow, about the mayor, how is that supposed to help anyone? That sucks. The sideways photos are steemit. No one else has this problem. Only smithlabs' photos load sideways.

He is a liberal, he does NOT want to help anyone but himself! He must claim to be helping the little guy; but in his heart, he hates them and wants them dead.

I have seen people gripe about this too. I suppose I could take the time to do the direct programming to turn them. I thought about that ,until weku got their photo editor running.

That mayor needs to go.

Hey have you been over to @mepatriot's blog lately? It's insane. Almost all his posts are greyed out because he's getting hundreds of downvotes for each one! Censorship because he's a Christian conservative. I wish I was a whale.

No, but I will go and upvote everything! I could help more on weku, but I will do what I can. That is one part of steemit I hate!

>:(

Yes I wish they would rethink that part but I think the whales like it so it's not going away.

One of the things that is killing steemit....

Otherwise known as Whale crap!

Yes, they ate well! I wish there were more there, but the left overs will go to feed the homeless at the Denver House.

It was a good day!

It is nice to see their smiles!

Well done to all involved 👍
