"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"
- Pete Seeger, in YES! Magazine

Join the Food Support Crew at Church

The project:
Sign up to help provide meals to families in need: recently returned from hospital, ill, aged.

Time:
Moments to sign up, but the projects will take longer in months to come.

Why bother?
I enjoy cooking, particularly for people who appreciate the effort. My husband's church membership is dwindling as children move on to other communities or other churches (or leave church altogether), and their parents and grandparents age. Many have passed on, and newcomers are few and far between. That leaves an increasing load of work for the dwindling number of volunteers. I thought I'd throw my chef's hat in the ring.

Worth it?
I think it will be.
