He was the one who started this sandwich making project. He's been doing it every Wednesday for the past 10+ years. Let's join him. : ) NEW TIME The sandwich making project is a ministry through a church downtown called First Christian Church 1314 SW Park Ave, Portland, OR 97201. We meet every Wednesday from 10:15am-10:30am arrival time. It will probably go for 2 hours (or sometimes they get done sooner). However, you can opt to only make sandwiches if you're not able to do the 2nd part which is delivering the sandwiches out on the street. Sometimes you can get parking in the garage located directly below the church if there is space. BUT BE SURE TO GET PARKING VALIDATION IN THE OFFICE RIGHT AFTER YOUR ARRIVAL because they might be gone by the time you get done with the activity. It’s best to take public transportation because a lot of times there isn’t any spots left. What we do: We arrive and wash up our hands and get to work making sandwiches and then we go out in 3 different groups on different routes downtown and offer the sandwiches, etc... to people (not just the homeless.). It’s very simple. We also hand out other items when we have them. Donations of these items gladly accepted. (Miniature toiletries items such as: soap, tooth brushes, tooth paste, shampoo, etc... Also: Socks, hats, gloves, scarfs, fleece material to make scarves. This project is a low key project without a lot of frills but it’s been one of the most meaningful things I’ve done with my time in the past few years. I even know people who have come down there…
