Recap of Mission//Fenway

Three weeks ago, we were in the midst of Fenway Church's first week of service. The team made up of students on spring break and some professionals who took a few days off handed out over 250 cups of coffee. A lot of great conversations were had with Fenway residents as they asked questions about why we were giving out free coffee at 7am. During the afternoons, the team helped Operation Peace (a non-profit organization working with Fenway residents) with advertising, office management, and the after school program. Out of the experience, Fenway Church now has 4 people volunteering with Operation Peace on a regular basis. David, the director of Operation Peace, commented of the volunteers that, "They are true 'Godsends.'" The week concluded with several people making and serving a brunch of pancakes, fruit, and eggs at a homeless shelter. These brunches will become a monthly occurrence.
