Finally...a few photos. More to come when we can gather them.

Due to traffic issues here, there is very little free time. Many of us have an hour commute into SF each morning and about the same return trip time after showers in the afternoon. Here are a few photos from my camera. Scott's crew, unfortunately, is unable to take photos due to the type of site they're working at (The Boys and Girls Club). The other crew has a few photos I haven't had a chance to upload yet, but also have issues with only being able to take photos at certain times. Enjoy these few shots!

In N Out right before arriving in Richmond, CA

The boys after playing football with some people they had met in the park about an hour earlier...

The work room inside of the SF Marin Food Bank. This food bank services a huge area. In fact, some of this food that we repackaged arrived at our other service locations today (Wednesday) where we were able to hand it out to the people we were serving. Cool to see it end up in the hands of those who need it!

Repacking carrots to go out to smaller local food banks, pantries and ministries.

After the boxes were packed, they were placed on pallets for shipment.

We saw very few bad carrots. We were told that these were "rejected" by the farm as ones that didn't fit the grocery store's criteria, so they were donated to the food bank. They looked fine to us. Another example of God's upside down kingdom perhaps?

We then moved on to repacking corn from 30lb boxes to 2lb bags for distribution to those in need.

Tammy has decided to have an "upside down" view at each of our nightly outings...you'll see more of these...

And randomly on our outing, this was found. Must've been a God thing ;-)

Beautiful sunset from the old Richmond Ferry depot (now abandoned) looking towards San Rafael, CA. It also served as our view as we sang praises and heard our evening message from the YW staff.

Listening to Austin speak to us about the Upside Down Kingdom

Our group working at the Bay Area Rescue Mission...amazing organization. We helped prepare ingredients for dinner, served lunch, worked in the warehouse and tomorrow we will go work at their organic farm. It's amazing how much of what they serve is made from scratch...even the barbeque sauce they used was made from donated ingredients. They make the most of what is given to them and teach their culinary skill to those undergoing recovery in the program.

Told you that you'd see more of these...

 

More photos to come!
