FOOD DONATION OUTREACHES
By Sophia Christiaan | June 24, 2020
Apart from all the spiritual aspects of Institute of Love Ministries, many may not know that for over 20 years, we have operated as a charity by daily distributing food donations to needy individuals in many cities and states throughout the United States of America.
A big part of the work we are presently doing in Toronto, Canada include this same kind of charity work. Every week, we pick up food donations from health food supermarkets and distribute the groceries directly to selected neighborhoods in various downtown areas.
With these outreaches, we are able to feed hundreds of families each week!
At the moment, our food distribution work centers mainly around the area of downtown Toronto called Kensington Market. This is a very diverse and artistic and touristic area.
It is also the home of many homeless people, whom we have had the blessing of getting to know. During our daily outreaches, we have the chance to show these social outcasts, who live on the street or hunker down in tents, the love of Jesus Christ.
We like to give the people on the street single-item foods like sandwiches and pastries they can eat right away!
We also bring food donations directly to various shelters and community centers, where they either distribute the groceries or cook meals in their kitchens. Our contributions are always very appreciated by these places, who many times rely on what the charity organizations bring them on a daily basis.
One of the most rewarding aspects of the ministry is seeing people walk away with big grocery bags filled to the brim with a wonderful assortment of food for the week, and street people filling their empty stomachs!
