It was an amazing afternoon! I thought I was going to learn how to make pie, but I learned that pie can heal and bring people together. I had so much fun giving away the free pie. I saw that such a simple thing as giving of yourself can provide so much joy.
Watch our interview about the joy of pie and serving. Also see how strangers reacted when we gave away free pie!
