Meals. Comfort. Kindness.
Loaves & Fishes strives to make sure our guests receive all three and the kindness can’t go understated. Longtime volunteer Theresa Hallin shared a great example of how a small gesture can go a long way.
“I was serving regularly at St. Stephen’s. One of the meals we served was sloppy joes and we had a guest who always wanted his without the bun,” Theresa shared. “Eventually I remembered that and when I saw him coming down the line I said, ‘You don’t want a bun, right?’ He looked up and said, ‘Wow, you remembered that.’ It was a small, but nice moment.”
Its volunteers like Theresa, remembering the little details about our guests, that has made Loaves & Fishes a place of comfort and kindness.
