Eucalyptus Teens Serve Breakfast

Last Saturday at Breakfast & Showers, a group of teens from the Eucalyptus neighborhood woke up early to make breakfast for our homeless neighbors.  Lately we've been running into kids in the neighborhood that need community service hours for school or court (usually for curfew or truancy).  We invited them to serve some of their hours on Saturday morning.  However, the group that showed up at 6:30 am to serve were kids that didn't even need hours, they just wanted to hang out & help.  Cool kids!  They enjoyed their time and asked if they could come back next week to help.  What teenagers actually enjoy waking up at 6 am on a weekend!?!  I'd like to send a big thank you out to Phill, Billy, Ronnie, Joe, Matt, Eric & Brent for helping out in the kitchen with the teens last week.  You made it fun for all of us!

Thanks for showing us how to make fluffy scrambled eggs!

If you or your church group is interested in cooking breakfast for our homeless neighbors on a Saturday morning, we're always looking for new groups to cook on the first Saturday of each month.  The next available morning is December 6th.  Call us at 562-804-2189!
