This year was the first time we served a Mega Breakfast on Thanksgiving morning. We had an amazing turn out. In that meal alone we were blessed to serve 280 meals. We also were able to serve a lunch and dinner that day to those in need. The number of meals served at Bread of Life Mission on Thanksgiving day was 498! We are so grateful to our donors who partnered with us to provide a delicious meal and to our volunteers who made the day run smoothly.

Thank you Bread of Life partners!     

Do you need catering provided for a business meeting? Are you having an event that includes lunch?

The Bread of Life Mission’s social enterprise business, Heroes Subs (www.heroessubs.com) offers catering for individuals and for businesses. All of the proceeds from Heroes Subs go directly back into the Bread of Life Mission and are used to continue to grow our resources to help the homeless.

In addition to being a legitimate service, Heroes Subs provides valuable work experience as well as a transitional opportunity for the men in the LifeChange Program.

The Bread of Life Mission presents its 3rd Annual Homeless Veterans Day.  Join us in honoring the service given to this country by those now in need.

On Monday, May 30th, 2011 the mission will host a presentation in Pioneer Square with guest Speaker Jim Horsley.  Jim comes to us as retired US Navy as well as a former Blue Angel pilot.  Following his uplifting message will be a BBQ in the street for the hundreds of needy families and individuals in Seattle.

Last year we were blessed to feed 1,200 individuals and hope to provide for even more this year.

Presentation: 12:00 PM

BBQ: 1:00 PM

Have you ever wondered what is “the right thing” to do when you encounter a homeless person on the street?  Often we want to give money, but deep down we’re not certain if that’s the best way to help someone.   Sometimes we have food or coffee with us that we give away, hoping that for a few moments we helped that person to be more comfortable.

The Bread of Life Mission is starting a new program that can help in those situations.  We now have free shelter vouchers that you can give to a homeless man (right now we are a “men only” overnight facility).  When your voucher is redeemed, we’ll send you an email to let you know that you helped provide food and shelter to that person for the night.  Knowing that you have helped someone in need can be a dramatic motivator, and we want to let you know that the way you care does make a difference.

If you would like some free vouchers, please email miac@breadoflifemission.org and we will send them to you.

The mission will be serving meals on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at 12 pm & 6 pm.

Volunteer shifts for both days will be from 11 am – 2 pm & 5 pm – 8 pm.

If interested in helping out, contact Mia Campbell at 206.682.3579 ext 106 or miac@breadoflifemission.org

• String beans
