Text of excerpt, if available

It was bitter cold and hundreds of people were waiting, 6 feet apart, for the distribution to begin. Our missionaries consider this service to be a highlight of their week. They know that even through a pandemic, people need to be served, they deserve a hot meal, they need a warm coat, they need to know that someone cares.
