Feeding the needy

Share post:

It felt like Christmas Day all over again for at least 60 people when the Save The Nation Ministries held its annual luncheon in Queen’s Park yesterday.
But the luncheon, which is held on the bank holiday after Christmas every year, is just the icing on the cake for those who get free breakfast from the team five days a week.
The team, headed by former entertainer Wayne Jackman, have been serving the homeless/needy out of their own pockets for the last nine years.Jackman, said he felt it was his calling to feed the needy because the Bible stated, “If you feed the least among us or clothe the least among us, then you feed Jesus”.
