Wednesday Night Service Feedback

Hillcrest is currently taking a couple weeks off from Wednesday Night Service before we resume it for the summer on Wednesday, June 10th. Here's a recap of the past 10 months:
  • There were over 40 different opportunities offered on Wednesday Nights
  • Over 150 Hillcresters participated in at least one project on a Wednesday Night over the past 10 months; an average of 120 Hillcresters participated on a Wednesday Night at least once a month
  • We served over 15 meals at the St Francis House
  • We delivered furniture for the Furniture Mission 10 times
  • We helped pack over 10,000 backpacks for the Food Bank over the 10 months
  • We cooked countless meals that have been given to families going to families in need
  • We sorted countless shoes (and countless other items!) at the VOA Thrift Store
  • We sang songs at the Good Samaritan Center

We've heard from the organizations the impact Hillcrest has had and is having (one agency emailed me yesterday and said this- please tell your group thank you for all the work they do for our clients). But the thing for me is the impact on us as the servers and how we've gotten to tangibly serve and make small differences.

As we discuss what Wednesday Night Service looks like going forward for the upcoming school year, I'd like your feedback and perspective on Wednesday Night Service. What worked well? What can we change? What was your highlight? What would you like to see happen this coming year? Leave a comment after this post; I appreciate the feedback and look forward to your perspectives.
