We periodically prepare a meal for the residents and guests at the Boston Rescue Mission. For these dates, we may need people to help prepare food ahead of time, and about 6 people to serve the dinner at the Mission. (It's a pretty small kitchen.) The next Boston Rescue Mission dinner will be September 26.
The past two years we have filled shoeboxes with small items as Christmas gifts for children around the world, as part of Operation Christmas Child.
