The Love Kitchen now provides a Wednesday food pantry, and serves 500 meals in house and delivers over 3,000 meals to the homebound per week. That’s 155,000 meals a year. Amy visited Helen and Ellen in 2015 and in this recording, you can hear their own voices. Their truth that you will see posted on the wall of the love kitchen is “Everybody is God’s Somebody”.
Three truths her Daddy taught them:
1. There is but one father, that’s the heavenly father
2. There is but 1 race, and that’s the human race.
3. Don’t ever take the last pc of bread from the table cause somebody might come by who’s hungry.
