Beautiful Day 2009

On Saturday, November 21st, all around San Jose a number of events went on called Beautiful Day. From the start of Beautiful Day we have always believed that our calling and purpose is to empower people to service and bless the very community that they live in through service, compassion, justice, and blessing.

Here at Farm Drive, the city of San Jose provided 6 dumpsters with the goal of cleaning up the neighborhood but more in particular to allow the community to get rid of mattresses, furniture, couches, electronics, etc., items which are very hard to dispose of. Below is Patty and some of the kids helping with the cleanup. Gary also brought some friends from the Kiwanis club.

Below you can see that we had lots of helps from the kids in the neighborhood. They in particular like to try and ride in the back of my truck!


Here is one of the dumpsters filled.

An area all cleaned up.
Afterwards, we had a barbecue for the entire neighborhood. We had hotdogs and hamburgers, chips and sodas. It was truly a beautiful day!
