Taken at: Downtown LA Rescue Mission


Last weekend I travelled down to SoCal to attend UCSD's graduation and up to LA for CENT's mission trip.
I had so much fun working in the LA Rescue Mission's kitchen. It was hard to walk out of the Mission's building and into the streets where homeless people filled the sidewalks. Tents, sleeping bags, cardboard, whatever would keep them from harm were set up as they're shelter. I've served the homeless in downtown SD before but this was on another scale.
I've begun my search to get involved in something like that up here. If anyone knows where I can serve the homeless in the bay area, let me know...

That's a really cool picture - I think there are a lot of places in SF (esp. the Tenderloin) where there's a really huge homeless population. A lot of churches do missions trips there.
