COOKING FOR OUR UNHOUSED NEIGHBORS
If you enjoy cooking with friends, Bethel's Kitchen Ministry offers two opportunities to cook for a cause:
- Join Mylene and other Bethel members to prepare and distribute breakfast burritos for those experiencing homelessness every Saturday morning. Burrito "build" from 8am to 10am, burrito delivery from 10am to 11am.
- On the first Saturday of each month, additional food is prepared to support a NOHO Home Alliance food distribution event the first Sunday of the month at 11031 Camarillo St., North Hollywood.
If you are interested in volunteering for one or more areas, please contact Mylene.
