Hola everyone,
we started out today with mass, which is a good way to start your day. After that some of us loaded up the cars with all the food we collected the previous day tabling and the other small group, witch I was in, went to Cash and Carry to collect all the other needed items that weren't donated mainly consisting of 50 lb. bags of beans, rice, flour, and sugar. then we went straight to the food bank. my car arrived there more then three hours early and their were already people waiting for us! it took us the full three hours to get set up because we had to portion all the bulk 50 lb bags and organize all the food. Right off the bat we were busy as we all manned our stations, letting people know how much of each food they could take. We all attempted to speak Spanish, but some people, mainly me, struggled with it. We all kept a smile on our faces, and everyone was really nice. There was this one woman who had a crying child, and I felt really bad for the child. The mom had to give up two power bars for fruit snacks to cheer her kid up. All and all, it was an amazing day and we served tons of people. At one point Rays watch ran out of bags. Remember get hyped for the Lord!

Today at the food bank we served 117 families! Yay! We ran out of food because there were so many families!... More food to come next week as we pray God will provide!
