Holiday Outreach: Good Friday 2013
Celebrating the resurrection of Jesus is what it is all about! We were able to serve almost 250 plates of food to the community and the volunteers who came out March 29th to eat a meal for the Easter weekend. There were 85 volunteers who came out to show the love of Jesus by serving a community in need. For everyone who came they received a bag full of toiletries that they could use for their everyday needs. We are so thankful for the variety of 12 groups who came out to volunteer including, Kaplan College, Texas Tech University, Covenant, Community Christian Church, Experience Life, and many more! Billy Morrison was our entertainment in playing the harmonica and getting the people involved by singing songs of praise to Jesus. All of this would have not been possible if it was not for our sponsorships from Victory Life Church, Amerigroup, Cathedral of Praise, and Familia Dental. We were glad to bring in the Easter weekend on a great note!

We were able to give each kid a toy who came to eat with ther parents. It was a blessed time to be able to serve the community in need with a delicious warm meal!

Feed the Mind - Thanksgiving 2011
Throughout the 2011 year, it became apparent that more and more people were struggling with their circumstances. As a result, The Bridge of Lubbock served a record number of meals this Thanksgiving. Not only did we serve 267 meals in one hour but we also provided 80 meals to volunteers serving families in need in Overton Park. In total nearly 70 volunteers helped us to serve 347 meals!! If that was not enough, we distributed 131 bags of groceries to individuals, 12 turkeys to families with small children and still others received t-shirts.
We could not have done any of it without our volunteers and donors who joined us in our effort to restore hope in the community!

Feed The Mind - Christmas 2010
Seasoned with Love and the South Plains Food Bank came together to provide an amazing Christmas meal for families in need. Over 50 volunteers helped to make this outreach a memorable day. From the elementary school students who served the meal, to the adults who took orders for the Christmas gifts there was something for everyone. 20 families were blessed with the ingredients for a complete Christmas meal including a turkey, 173 meals were served with each person receiving hats, gloves, blankets and coats.
We are most thankful to the Llano Estacado Chapter of the SCTE (Society of Cable Telecommunication Engineers), Covenant Health System, Dillard's and Live Oak Community Church for their generosity in helping us to provide the meals, coats and blankets to our families. We would be unable to do what we do without our volunteers from Live Oak Community Church, Victory Life Baptist, Whitewood Lanes and those who just came to serve the Lord.

Feed The Mind - Christmas 2009
Our Feed the Mind Lunch provided an opportunity to not only provide a wonderful Christmas meal but also to bless families in need with much needed blankets, scarves, hats, socks and other helpful items to help them manage the brutal winter that Lubbock was experiencing at the time.
We would like to thank Fox34 News and Bob Mills for helping us spread the word about our Donation Drive and collecting the donations. The amount of donations that we received was overwhelming, once again the Lubbock community exhibited amazing generosity.
We could not have served 150 people without our volunteers from Victory Life Baptist Church, Trinity Church and so many others who took time to visit with our families.
