We would like to thank the members of Temple Masonic lodge AF&AM for their support the last couple of weeks feeding the homeless here in Houston.

Unfortunately, we have been forced to take a sabatical from feeding the homeless here in Houston until we can determine how the new laws that make it "illegal" for people to be homeless in the city will effect those we support (the homeless ).

As of today, we will not be meeting every Saturday morning to feed the homeless as we have the last 2 years. But please continue to follow our page, and we will post updates about how we will continue to serve the homeless within the law.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who has supported us these last couple of years. We couldn't have come this far without you.

If you, live in Houston and , like us, are upset that your city leaders have chosen to "solve" the homeless problem by making it illegal for people to be homeless, please make your opinion know to your city government officials.

Please continue to respect each other and help those who cannot help themselves.

Nothing but love,

FCH

Just some food for thought...

Due to Freedom of Speech, shouldn't you be able to ask for help without being criminalized?

Being a person with compassion is never a crime.

Donate today by supporting your local distributor, or online. Thank you!

To the lovely people of Houston:

Next weekend, October 24th, we will not be distributing, as none of the directors of FoodCrews can make it to help coordinate. FoodCrews has prepared and given well over 5000 meals this past year, and we are proud to say this will be the first break in the past year. We apologize for the inconvenience!
On a brighter note, we will be giving love and hope this weekend; so come on out and be a hero. Make a difference this weekend!

Today I saw some truly inspiring random acts of kindness, first one of our volunteers went out of her way to purchase much needed medical supplies for one poor soul, and she then help get him cleaned and doctored up. Another volunteer literally gave the shoes off her feet to a woman who had none...

Thank you Carrie, Bonnie, and all of our amazing volunteers! You are all awesome.
