Reading about the death of Ben Bakers family members in Haiti in an OP here.

[Sympthsical]

56. I hear you. Do you hear you?

This has a flavor of "Tell me you don't volunteer without telling me." As someone who does, lemme tell ya. There are an awful lot of religious folks involved in helping the poor in America. I run into them when I volunteer. They're generally nice people who want to help others.

There's this Latino family I came to know while volunteering dropping off food packages a friend of mine puts together. They load up a big van and make the rounds to homeless shelters in the area every weekend bringing coffee, donuts, and other food care packages to people. Sometimes they bring blankets and things. For some of the people in the shelters, it is the highlight of their week. There's lines down the sidewalk. Mothers in women's shelters frequently have their kids with them.

So, they hand out the coffee, donuts, and breakfast. And then they do a little praying/preaching. Nothing crazy. They do it first in English, then in Spanish.

They're the nicest people. Nice family. But hey, I'll let them know you don't like their agenda.

And after I do that, can I pencil you in to bring blessedly agendaless mornings every weekend down at these shelters or nah?
