lone youth group assists homeless
lone Youth Group and leaders gather outside on Burnside
Melissa McElligott and Mac Lovett donate gloves to Sr. Maria
Francis
over the two days. At Outreach
By Anne Morter
The lone Youth Group made a
pre-Christmas service trip to the
Burnside area o f Portland
December 2 1 and 22.
The group volunteered their
services to several of the agencies
in the area and were given tasks
ranging from cleaning to serving
food to wrapping Christmas
presents for homeless children.
Instead of preparing a meal for
the homeless as they have done
in the past, the group channeled
their funds into providing gloves
for needy people. Morrow Coun­
ty Grain Growers sold the youth
group 85 pairs of gloves at their
cost, which the students donated
to Outreach M inistries for
distribution. Youth group coor­
dinator, Jeri McElligott, said that
the gloves w^.c donated on Mon­
day, and on Tuesday, she was
pleased to see a man wearing a
pair at Blanchet House.
The four adult leaders split the
group into four smaller groups
and all of the groups rotated
through five different agencies
Ministries, they cleaned apart­
ments and did office work.
O utreach M inistries is an
organization that becomes “ fami­
ly” for homeless people. They
find apartments, clean those
apartm ents and handle the
finances of 50-60 people who
might not be able to do so on their
own.
Recovery Inn, a night shelter
for men (formerly Baloney Joes)
was another stop. There the
volunteers sorted clothes, folded
blankets, washed walls and clean­
ed the sleeping room.
At the Sisters of the Road Cafe,
the group waited tables, bused
tables and helped in the kitchen.
This c:'.fe serves homeless people
a meal for $ 1.25 and is authot ,z-
ed to accept food stamps. People
without money are allowed to
work for their meals.
Blanchet House is a soup kit­
chen, operated by the Catholic
Church, which serves breakfast
and lunch 365 days a year. Group
members helped serve soup at
Blanchet. The Monday group
By Mertyn Wobtnaon
Does it seem like it’s been winter forever-a time to keep home
fires stoked and the snow boots handy? But no one dares to grumble
too loudly because of the freeze-dried moisture. However, we are
fortunate compared with areas that are buried in snow and that our
white stuff hasn’t been whirled into impassable drifts.
Though the majority of people aren’t stuck at home anymore when
the weather and roads get risky, it still tends to generate a “ cabin
fever” mentality after the December bustle before Christmas.
In case you’re not a snowmobiler there are always soap operas
or movies. So I won’t dwell on non-entertaining things like income
tax preparation, neglected craft projects, cleaning out drawers, rear­
ranging closets or trying new recipes.
Livestock producers get plenty of outdoor exercise as the weather
whets animal appetites. Needless to say, there are usually some
newborns that need help when born into a cold cruel atmosphere.
Even our stock dog prefers a cozy indoor rug instead of crisp straw
in the barn. When the thermometer is stuck on zero.
It’s still a far cry from when there wasn’t an abundance of four
wheel drive vehicles and country roads often became bottomless. It
was during the winter of 1949-50 that just a few miles from town
it seemed like we were cut off from the rest of the world. For nearly
three months there was nothing but snow, drifts and zero
temperatures.
Cut off from Saturday night dances and get-togethers seemed like
cruel and unusual punishment to me. It was only when our neighbors,
the Al Fetches took pity on us that we socialized for an evening of
card playing and homemade ice cream, thanks to their small jeep.
Come February, we were still stuck in the “ hollow” with no relief
in sight. The herd instinct caused me to devise a plan that would get
us to the “ can’t miss' Elks annual. We rode horseback to town leav­
ing our hired man to fend with overnight chores.
No, we didn’t stomp into the dance wearing cowboy boots. A suit
and a long formal had been carefully packed and tied behind sad­
dles. Thanks to accommodations from friends we reveled in the all-
night festivities.
It must have been a very ‘hot’ party for as we prepared to ride
back the next day, a sudden thaw hit. In the aftermath, roads and
the countryside were sliced with ditches.
Even though our hill going to town now resembles a toboggan run,
no more chaining up to become hopelessly mired. Front wheel drive
makes an amazing difference. And just think of all the “ educational”
things one can learn with more time to watch television. For instance.
I recently learned that the “ grunge” look is in style. As explained,
it means putting on anything that doesn’t really go together. Here
I’ve been in style for some time and didn't know it. It’s gratifying
when one can be a fashion setter.
dished out 440 bowls of soup dur­
ing their shift.
At the Greenhouse Youth
Shelter, a primary task was wrap­
ping Christmas presents for
homeless children. Greenhouse
does not provide overnight ac­
commodations for youth but in­
stead offers schooling, counsel­
ing and sporting activities from
3-9 p.m. daily.
McElligott mentioned that it
was interesting being on Burnside
so close to Christmas because the
donations of food, clothing, toys,
money and merchandise from
large retailers were pouring in.
“ We were constantly interrupted
by people coming in to make a
donation,” she said.
The group stayed overnight at
the First Congregational Church
in downtown Portland, with ar­
rangements made through the
lone United Church of Christ.
Bill Rietmann transported
students to and from the project.
The students participating in
this service trip were: Ryan
H alvorsen, Justin M iller,
Michelle Kandle, Rob Van’t Ent,
Bridget M cElligott, Jessie
Stefani, Lynde Minster, Crystal
Minster, Erika Bergstrom, Mac
Lovett, Fatma Juma, Jared
Ashbeck, Jake Bacon, Kim
Bedortha and Melissa McElligott.
For Halvorson, Miller and
Melissa McElligott, it was their
third service trip. Adult leaders
were Cathy Halvorsen, Tom
Bedortha, Jeri McElligott and
Janet McElligott.
