Church groups feed masses during re-o, refuse requests to turn water into RTDs
You know what they say: Give a man a sausage, he eats for a day. Teach a man to grill, and he’ll love Jesus for life.
A group of young people from Dunedin churches — mostly students — handed out an estimated 3,000 sausages and 1,000 hash browns, free-of-charge, over Re-O week.
Mike Bagge, co-ordinator of the Combined Christian Groups (CCG), told Critic Te Arohi that “we gave out 600 sausages and 200 hash browns on the Wednesday night,” and although they ran out by 12:30am, they “could have kept going if we had more supplies.” While paling in comparison to the 700-800 handed out every night over O-Week, these were certainly not rookie numbers.
