Simple, Meaningful, Fun...

Bunch of us from church (a baker's dozen) volunteered last night to help out El Modena Community Center provide some 200+ turkey dinners to the community at their parking lot.  Thanks to Sun Yu's research on our community (more on this later), we found out that this very active community service organization was trying to put together an open community dinner.  And we volunteered to do the dessert, but were able to help out in several other ways as well.

300+ pieces of pie and 300+ awesome mini pumpkin cheesecakes were prepared (cheesecakes by Nadia. Couple of hours later, they were all gone!  On a nearly perfect California Fall evening, it was a simple, meaningful, and fun service opportunity.  Smiles all around, and I think pretty much everyone said to me "let's do this again soon!"

Great job to Jery, Ray, Deb, Sorina, Jong, Joshua, Madeleine, Marcus, Karyn, Mike, Alice & Nadia!

Thanks to Teresa at El Modena Center and the staff for letting us take part in this cool event!
