The 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023 volunteers helped prepare hot dogs and beverages to pass out to the people living at MacArthur Park and led them in prayer throughout the morning before heading out. The team was immediately recognized by the parks community and the 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023 team got to start conversations, hear their stories and pray over them.

The goal is to come out here and be a presence that is consistent, said one of the members there from the Dream Center leadership school. We like to come out and just love on them and help them to see that, we see them, and that above that God sees them.

These contained resources for Dream Center events, rehabilitation programs, and church information to any who wanted to know more or asked for help. There was always an open invitation to join the team at church.
