"Cor Unum is committed to the truth that no man, woman, or child should ever be hungry"
Perspective! that is what I can say about life after serving food at the hot meal center in Lawrence this afternoon. We live in a rich country America but there are still homeless and hungry all over. Though the government can send money to all the other countries like Middle East ect. With a happy heart I was glad to help. Lots of work but well worth it. So sad to see young kids make their way there for a hot meal ALONE! Yes I mean young kids. So very sad. Makes you see just how fortunate we are. This place is near the other soup kitchen that I shop and cook for the first week of the month. I must say the operation this place has going is superior to Bread and Roses. I am sure B and R feeds less people. Both places are run solely by private donations and volunteers. I am looking forward to going back next month. It was hard work well worth it. The smiles on the faces made it worth while. The simple things like a hot meal made them grateful. I tried my best to treat them all like they were at a restaurant and be an A+ waitress. I thanked them for coming and slipped all my guests with extra dessert...lol They could get seconds on the appetizer and main course but not dessert but I hooked them up.....SWEET! lol Hey they can't fire me I am a volunteer....LOL
I am blessed with many talents and thank God by putting those talents to work. The more you give the better you make yourself feel. A smile goes a long way....Blessings!
