Brockton - March 29, 2026

Sunday, it was warm and sunny with bright blue skies in Brockton. It felt like old homecoming week, as so many of our friends came out to share a meal on this spring like day. We served 95 meals to those in need, and ran through basically all of our food. But people were really happy to be out and to see us.

We had a team of six with volunteers for the following churches: Church of Emmanuel, Jesus Revolution Church, Grace Chapel

We have pages of prayer requests that I will go through now:
