Not many students have had the opportunity to go and feed the homeless, but there is a club on campus that has done that, and plan to continue their calling.

The L.A Church of Christ Campus Ministry Club became active for the first time this semester.

“We tried to start last semester, but we lacked leadership,” said Caroline Diaz, club member and mathematics major, “we are organized now, we all work together.” she said.

About 13 student club members volunteered at the L.A. Midnight Mission On Feb. 22.

Diaz said, “Some of us handed out the food and some cleaned the tables after it was all over.”

The club has another activity planned for this Saturday.

The members will be helping with a yard sale at the L.A. Sunshine Mission. They will help raise money for the services that the mission provides.

“We are a spiritual and religious club, God favors those who are kind to the poor,” Diaz said. Diaz continues to contact other organizations to offer the club members’ help.

In the past the club has also gone to Tijuana, Mexico, to donate clothes and toys. “Around 17 of us went to the poorest parts of Tijuana the beginning of the new year to give to the needy,” Diaz said.

Everyone is invited to the meetings or to the activities.

During a typical meeting the members share with each other, they discuss what what they did at their last meeting if there are new members, and plan future activities.

Other colleges and universies also have ministries including UCLA, UCI, UCR, USC, and Mt. San Antonio College.

If you want to join the club at their next meeting on Tue. 11 or participate in the Sat. activity contact Caroline Diaz at (562) 288-0576.
