A local community kitchen. A shelter. A mobile meals program. These sound like very helpful services for our community, but maybe you are thinking that helpful doesn’t exactly make for an exciting and entertaining podcast, necessarily…. Well, don’t be fooled. This episode will inspire you, make you laugh, astound you with its vision and leadership and dedication of volunteers. Hundreds of volunteers.
Honestly, this is one of my all-time favourite episodes I have ever recorded. I went down to the ward-winning Cloverdale Community Kitchen (or The Storehouse, as it is often called) , and met with the executive Director, Marty Jones. We talked, we laughed, he toured me around. He shared the workings of the place and all of their services – and I got to capture it in person for you.
This is what community is all about. They actually operate by a code of words like: dignity, inclusion and compassion and you will hear why, and you will also hear that this is not just an empty kind of mission statement. These folks practice what they preach. They engage a huge community in service, care and compassion and you know what? They seem to have an amazing time doing it.
Listen, enjoy, share and let me know what you think.
Thank you for being here.
I love that you are growing good with me.
