Town to the Westside: 500+ meals

Meals, clothes and toiletries from town all the way out to the Westside.

By the Inside Outreach team · November 21, 2024

This past weekend we fed the homeless from one end of the island to the other.

We started in town and kept driving until we hit the Westside. Hui Mahiʻai ʻĀina came with us, and together we handed out more than 500 meals, plus clothes and toiletries.

The hands and feet

There’s a phrase we use a lot. Being the hands and feet of Jesus. It sounds churchy. It isn’t. It means you stop talking about loving people and go do it. With your hands. With your feet. On a Saturday when you could be at the beach.

That’s what this was. A lot of hands, a lot of feet, and a lot of joy.

Your turn

Here’s our question for you. Who will you serve in your community this week?

You don’t need a truck full of food. Buy an extra plate lunch and give it away. Keep water bottles in your car. Learn the name of the uncle you pass every day on the way to work.

And if you want to come with us next time, just ask. There’s always room.
