Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday is one of our outreaches to the community. The day begins with breakfast and continues with opportunities for our guests to use cell phones or watch movies. At our noon day meal, they will be treated like “royalty”. Volunteers, dressed in white shirts and black pants will serve them. China and glassware will be used. At 3pm, when I turn off the movies, some will become teary eyed when it all comes to an end. For the first time in a long time, they have felt loved and respected.

Here's our video from last year's Easter:



The 200,000 meals per year you help provide are just part of the story. It’s about the man in our Rebound men’s program who realizes that God loved him and went from sitting in back of the class to the front. It’s about the woman in our Dove’s Nest program who returned home with the tools to stay clean and sober.

The miracle at Calvary is still changing lives daily.
