Benno-2/27/10-Father’s Heart Ministry

Today Logan and I, went to the Father’s Heart Ministry.  When we arrived we were immediately told to hang up our jackets and form a chain with everybody there to bring all of the pre made bags of canned goods(there were about 5-6 hundred).  Once the top floor was filled we started storing them on the ground floor.  Once all the bags were stored we helped set up the tables in the dining room, there were about 100 seats.  When that was completed the head lady Carly got up on stage and made a speech about what we were doing, some things that she said was the people who came where our guests and we had to treat them that way.  When she was done with the speech she then handed out our assignments, Logan and I got pantry.  In pantry you had to bring bags down from the top floor, so Logan and I were running up and down the stairs with 5 pound bags.  The Father’s Heart ministry is only open on Saturday for breakfast from 10-11 and is all you can eat.  By the end of the hour by myself i had probably brought down 250 bags and had broken a sweat and the Father’s Heart Ministry had served 555 people.  If you want to learn more about the Father’s Heart Ministry there website is http://www.fathersheartnyc.org/.  Here are some photos that I took.
