High School Ministry Friendship Shelter Outreach

If you are a High School student, you are invited to join us as we head down to Friendship Shelter to provide a meal for their current residents on November 12. The Friendship Shelter is an overnight shelter for homeless adults. They provide an environment for their residents to regain self-sufficiency. We will be preparing and serving dinner to the residents. Every student will be assigned the role of bringing canned goods, or a package of pasta & spaghetti sauce to donate. Please meet at the church at 3:30 PM on Sunday, November 12th, and we will be returning at 8:30 PM. Please sign up in the Student Center or by emailing Dillon Pratt here.

Please note: due to the size of the kitchen, there are limited spots available. The first students to sign up in the Student Center will secure their spot.

TRANSPORTATION: Pacific Hills will be providing van transportation to and from this event. Please drop your student off at 3:30 PM and expect them to return to the church at 8:30 PM.

TASKS: We will be preparing food for approximately 25 residents of the Friendship shelter. Duties will be assigned the day of the event. Tasks could include things like cooking meat, chopping various vegetables, setting up the food bar, or simply talking to and hanging out with the residents.

SAFETY: The shelter is a safe and cleanly environment. It is on the beach in Laguna Beach, and there have never been any safety issues. Students must stay inside during the event, and will be together in the kitchen and dining area. We do ask that students leave their cell phones in

WHAT TO WEAR: It is best to be prepared with closed-toe shoes appropriate for standing for long periods and clothing that you wouldn’t mind getting dirty. Breaks are available if needed.

FOOD: All food that we will be preparing and serving will be provided by Calvary Chapel Pacific Hills. After the food has been prepared and all shelter residents have been served dinner, the students will eat dinner at the shelter.
