OHOP's Central Florida Compassion Center Thanksgiving Outreach-Part 1
This past Thursday night our missions base Compassion Center hosted a FREE Thanksgiving Dinner for the Homeless and Needy of our community.We are so excited to see so many people coming to the free dinnerThe food was prepared by many of our missions base members, other churches and also Restaurants and grocery stores. We had so many of our OHOP family and other churches come to volunteer for this outreach.We had the people seat at the tables and then our volunteers served them the dinner.The food was so good and everyone seemed to really enjoy the hot meal.
Carlos, Ken and George gave away many door prizes that were donated by differnt people. All of the prizes were gift cards to different places.
The first winner!This guy was so happy he kissed George on the forehead LOLA happy winner!
The Compassion Center is always looking for donations. This time of year we really need blankets, coats, jackets, gloves, sweathers, mittens, scarves and all types of warm clothes. We had one of our missions base members talk to her employer and he gave her permission to let her fellow employees know that the CFCC needed blankets for the homeless. Well, they came through with TONS of blankets which we were able to give out that night. A cold front came through Florida so it was chilly and the blankets were greatly appreciated.
Each family left with a full stomach, a blanket, a carton of eggs and bread!
