Pictured here is Travis Scott, youth pastor, and the Fresh Life Youth Group as they serve dinner at the Samaritan House Monday, March 23rd. Samaritan House quietly passed a pretty big milestone last year... 100,000 meals served in the shelter kitchen. This is only possible because of groups like this and the many other volunteers and groups who pull together, volunteer, donate, cook and serve at the shelter.
For many of our residents it is difficult to come to the shelter. Experts say that 100% of the people in the shelter spend 99% of their time thinking about not wanting to be at the shelter, and that this is true no matter where the shelter is.
The simple beauty of a person volunteering to help someone else in their time of need is powerful and it is exactly what helps us serve the way we do.
Many Thanks!
