Men's Ministry helps 2nd Harvest

Hi All,

Please join us men in participating to Men’s Ministry community impact event with 2nd Harvest Food Bank.

Let’s gather and help sort and store food for the hungry of the Bay Area (there are some, and more, can you believe that?!)

Feel free to bring some cans… and friends along… at the 2nd Harvest warehouse for a manly-men job.

25 volunteers max, so first come, first SERVE!

Afterwards we can gather together at the best “undiscovered” taqueria in San Jose, a few blocks from there. (A great opportunity to get in, and be part of the best kept secret of Silicon Valley ;)

Please contact me directly for RSVP and/or clarification questions at jds.journey@gmail.com. We need to have a final count of who is coming by 11/13

Hello Men’s Ministry,

Men’s Ministry, Journey Church Warehouse Food Sort on Monday, 11/21/2011, 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the San Jose Distribution Center. Please refer to the address of the location listed at the end of this email.

We are looking forward to having your group come and volunteer with us. We value you spending time with us and we strive to start your volunteer experience on time. Please plan on arriving no sooner than 10 minutes prior to and no later than 10 minutes after your scheduled sorting shift time. Specific to evenings and weekend food sorts, due to training and securing of our warehouse, we are sometimes unable to accommodate late arrivals as registration closes 20 minutes past the schedule sorting shift time.

Watch a video about how we work and share it with friends!
