We send five teams a week that give around 900 meals to those in need.
Currently, we send out approximately 900 meals every week on our various food van teams. In addition to meals, our various teams give about 120kg of bread, 70kgs of fruit, and at least 40 food parcels each week. They also take out clothes, blankets, and sleeping bags. Our teams also bring spiritual support too. They hand out tracts and Bibles, listen to their needs, offer prayer, share the Gospel, and put on display the love of God to people who need His love.
