WOTS has a Bible study and feast every Sunday at 4:00pm EST on East Colonial Drive. We are looking for friends who can sign up for one Sunday every month to cook and bring an entree, meat, salad, or dessert. For example, you might choose to bring an entree on the second Sunday of every month. We plan to expand the Sunday feast as soon as we have enough "cooks in the kitchen". In addition to the east side of town, we will launch a Sunday Feast at 4pm on the west, south and north sides, and downtown Orlando.
WAYS YOU CAN SERVE
WOTS has special celebrations on the Sundays nearest July 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. We always need help with food, give-away items, and staff for these large events:
July 4th barbeque Thanksgiving feast with grocery and hygiene bags give-away
Christmas feast with wrapped presents for all children, and gifts for all adults
Easter feast and communion
Generous companies like Pizza Hut, 7/11, KFC, Chipotle, Long John Silvers, and Publix (to name a few) donate food to WOTS on a daily basis. We need volunteers who are willing to pick up and deliver these food items to distribution points. Please sign up if you are interested and we will contact you to discuss details and make arrangements. Pick up times vary from 7am to 10pm.
If you live in or near a neighborhood that could use some help with food, hygiene, and children or baby needs, would you please consider being a distribution point for Word on the Street Homeless Ministries. One a week, couple times a month or monthly as it fits you schedule we can set up an awning and tables to supply you with items we have on hand so folks can walk or bike or drive to pick up needed goods. WOTS needs you to "Man the distribution point" and "encourage folks who come.
COMING SOON
Every week Pastor Skip assembles more than 500 snack bags to hand out to the homeless throughout Central Florida. The reality is WOTS needs four times that amount! We have a central location with all the supplies needed to pack these bags; now we just need some helping hands who can commit to assembling them on a weekly basis. This would take a few hours a week, but you don't have to do it alone. Volunteering together as a family or small group would make this easy work! If you are interested in getting involved and making a real impact for the homeless, please sign up today!
