Dear Amma's Children,
Jai Karunamayi!
Jai Sairam!
On December 17, with the grace and blessing of Amma, we had our monthly Narayana Seva at My Sister's House on Howell Mill Road, Atlanta, a shelter serving women and children, and the restoration house.
We prepared meals to serve about 350 women and children who live in these two shelters. The dinner consisted of vegetarian chili, delicious vegetarian pasta, macaroni and cheese for the kids (actually adults cannot resist the temptation as well), healthy green salad, dinner rolls, bananas, and candies. We also served more special Christmas-themed cookies to everyone thanks to Alyssa - one of the moms of the children who go to Srim Academy!
Several of Amma's devotees make this dinner service possible. Diaha Lewis made monetary contributions this month. Sai Devdutta, Alexander Balick, Phani Tummala, Alok Makam, Vinoda Makam, Purna Chadalawada and Sridaran have been making recurring monthly contributions to enable us to do this important community service. Jaishree made a lovely colorful salad (with delivery help from Anup); Anitha & Vignesh, and Kala (with delivery help from Tom) made everyone's favorite Mac&Cheese (very grateful to Kala and Anitha for stepping in at the 11th hour since the ever dependable Carol had to be away on a good samaritan mission to Florida); Sundray (with supplies partly provided by Devi) made all the veggie pasta; Hemant bought the bananas; Vasanthi and Kishore made the veggie 3-bean chili; Kishore bought all the supplies.
It was in-person service this month as this will be the norm going forward. Vasanthi, Sundray and Kishore were on hand at the shelter to serve the hot dinner to the residents and the children; they were short handed but Howard, one of the managers of the kitchen helped us to keep the lines moving. It is a tight time window for serving two batches of back-to-back dinner service (one for the adult women, and one for the mother and children). So at least 5 people are needed to make the service swift and efficient. The residents loved all the food that was made with so much love by Amma's devotees.
Enjoy the pictures!
