The homeless meal is this Sunday, but we are being forced to move from the location we have used for four years. We had a Jumbo-tron show up last time, and he thought the church service he was showing had to be set to the highest volume his amplifiers could produce!
In the four years we have served there, the Police have come by once, when we called them. They were there two or three times to tell him to turn down the audio. As soon as they left, he turned it back up.
Now the City is after shutting us all down. So four years of work has been ruined by one jerk with a Jumbo-tron!
We have located another place to serve food four blocks east of where we were. A Church has given us written permission to use their parking lot to continue feeding the Homeless. This should keep us clear of the Police, but wish us luck in getting the homeless to trust us enough, to move with us!
They do NOT like changes. This will be a test of the trust we have built up with the Homeless, in the last four years. I pray that they trust us enough, but Sunday will show us if we still have people to feed or not!
And all over one idiot with a jumbo-tron, and no common sense! I don't believe that this is the way GOD would like to see his message presented....
We will continue to serve hot food to the Homeless, but we will now be a 11th and South Main St in Tulsa. I will let you know how this turns out, but I am worried. The homeless may just disappear, and we may have to start all over again....
