Hanging with the homeless in Nashville

Pastor Bob started feeding homeless people in Nashville under Jefferson Street Bridge some time ago. I started helping out about 1,5 years ago, and now Bob and friends are feeding most days of the week. (This first picture is 1,5 years ago during the cold Nashville winter).
I've been longing to get back under the bridge again hanging out, and it's great being able to do that again while I'm here! (Picture taken a week ago).
Since the financial crisis A LOT of people have lost their homes. Right now there's about 3.000 people on the street just in the Nashville area. The picture below shows Pastor Bob praying before the meal. Most of these homeless are thankful Christians and the greatest people!

If you wanna check it out the homeless feeding ministry this is the place to go:
Picture above shows two of the Danish friends who are traveling with me in the States this time. Simone and Levi are also on the team behind Snactuary Denmark, the Green Light District Festival and the metal ministry in Denmark.

Andreas,

My wife and I are friends with Thomas and Amy. I'm pretty sure we met you when we visited your family in the summer of 2004, but you might not remember us.

Anyways, we live in Chapel Hill, North Carolina now. Since you're in Tennessee now, if you and your Danish friends ever come this way and need a place to stay, let us know. Take care!
