This was a brighter christmas for thousands of people in need thanks to an army of volunteers. Glide served a holiday meal to 2,800 people yesterday.

Not just homeless population, but for anyone who needs a meal for, you know, residents in the area that cant make ends meet. The church serves about 2,000 meals every day.
