Feeding the poor - body and soul
Gracia del Calvario currently has three lunch kitchens providing hot, healthy lunches for children that otherwise would not eat lunch. We purchase the cooked food from Outside the Bowl, a nearby ministry and serve 200 kids per day on school days.
It is a fact that a child needs nutritious food to do well in school and so we believe the faith, education and food all go together to help raise godly leaders!
We also provide lunch to seniors or people with disabilities.

Food for families
Times are difficult for many families and if they cannot feed their children then they cannot educate them either and sometimes put them in orphanages. We distribute food to families with the Word of God and a message of Hope and Prayer. This is done through our church and we also visit families who do not know the Lord, pray with them, encourage them and bless them with a bag of assorted foods. We have groups with a passion to be in the streets with the message of the gospel. They are blessed more than they bless others.
"If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth." 1 John 3:17-18
