    I hope they've managed to keep this going. The local supermarkets could so easily keep this going with relatively small food donations. I just love all of these folds. So sweet, especially the 2 elderly men.

    Our Church (Anglican) gives unending support to all, from newborns to 95 year olds. I am so thankful to be a part of it. As an ex jw ( a sect who would give a starving pensioner a "bible" based tract to feed upon) I thank Jesus to be able to witness true agape love in action.
