A Special Meal

On Saturday night, we were privileged to help serve a special meal sponsored by Grace for the students. The meal even included a soda—a rare and much-appreciated treat! About 500 students were served and finished eating within an hour, a remarkable display of efficiency from which we could certainly learn a few lessons.

Michelle served Chapati that was a favorite, while Marcia served cabbage, which surprisingly(?) many chose to skip.
