KITCHEN REFLECTIONS FROM OUR SPONSORS TOUR 2013

For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me. Matthew 25:35 The Mission Without Borders Soup Kitchens provide so much more than just food to thousands of people in Eastern Europe. As witnessed by our Sponsor Tour Delegates, these community centres also provide companionship, confidence and dignity. Often their only chance to share a meal and a conversation, your support will provide a much needed gift of food and unconditional love this year. “What is the business of Mission Without Borders? The business of Mission Without Borders is not serving soup or meals. It is to raise and celebrate the human spirit in Jesus’ name.” Allan Wright - Sponsors Tour 2013
