FELC volunteers will provide and serve a meal this Saturday at the University Baptist Church Micah 6 drop-in center. The center serves young adults [up to 30 years old] who are street dependent. Facilities at UBC include computers, TVs, laundry machines and comfy couches in an air-conditioned lounge. Visitors can also pick up clothing and toiletry items.
This Saturday is the second of five dates in 2024 that FELC is scheduled to provide the meal. Brian Neidig is head chef this time around and he will be preparing a hearty, cheesy beef enchilada casserole. And we’ve got folks signed up to bring sides: beans, rice, corn salad, and of course – chips, salsa and guacamole. And don’t forget about dessert! Provisions are made for vegetarians as well. Diners often come back for seconds and even thirds. Many young people have been touched by God’s love through appetizing & nutritious food, friendly smiles and unconditional care.
First English has been an enthusiastic participant with this ministry for many years. If you would like to know about the next opportunity to prepare and / or serve the Saturday meal, contact Heidi Goebel heidigoebel@sbcglobal.net , and she will add you to the list. It’s easy, fun, and provides a meaningful service to young people in the Austin area.
