Next Step(s)

It's appropriate that our next step on this journey with the Gospel of Mark is serving at the Next Step Shelter.

Below is our virtual sign up sheet (I'll update the chart regularly).  You can let me know in the comment section below which day you'd like to volunteer or you can email me at:

brandon-duran@centralunionchurch.org.

Each meal service can accommodate about 4-6 people from the "Marking the Way" group.  We're partnering with the Community Ministry of CUC as they have a steady relationship with the Next Step Shelter.  There are several members of the "Marking the Way" group who have served at the shelter before so they have help show others the ropes.

The meal starts at 6:30p and it would be good to arrive sometime between 5:30p and 6:00p.  Let me know if and when you can serve or if you have any ideas or questions.

2/9/16 - Val, Carl
3/8/16 - Brandon, Anuhea

Directions from Ken:
The monthly meal takes place in the OHA Warehouse, located on a huge barren lot between the UH Medical School and the Foreign Trade Zone on the makai side of Ala Moana Blvd.; easiest to enter from the east-side, through the oceanside extension of Ward Avenue, so keep going past JABSCOM (med school) on the left, and take the last open entry drive on the left, just prior to the exit street on the right, going back to Ala Moana Blvd.

Go all the way to the end of the large Warehouse, located close to the ocean rock barrier, and circle around the building counterclockwise, and come back toward the mountains; you'll no doubt see our white CUC van and parked cars next to a large industrial-sized loading area; be careful of children playing in the paved area.
