One of the most wonderful things that the Lord has bestowed on St. George's is the ministry of feeding and helping homeless people on a daily basis on the Church campus in downtown Orlando. Dinner is served every evening. Different groups feed on different days. Our evening meal is put on in conjunction with the Ephraim Project under the direction of Rachelle Hood on Fridays at 5:00 PM; we are blessed to feed between 300 and 350 men, women and children. Each Friday a spiritual message is delivered by Father John before the meal. In addition we distribute clothes, shoes and toiletries to these wonderful people. Many of our homeless attend Divine Liturgy and have joined the Holy Orthodox Church.
For the future, we are praying that the funds become available to open a daily drop-in center for services for the homeless. Personally speaking, I am so thankful to GOD that He has allowed us to fulfill one of the lines in the Troparion {hymn} of St. GEORGE: 'Defender of the poor.' With the Grace of GOD and the participation of the faithful, this ministry will grow and grow. St. George's is now the homeless feeding center in downtown Orlando.
