Young Unificationists of the Philadelphia Family Church Community volunteered to hold signs for the “All You Can Eat Pancake and Coffee Breakfast for $2” on Saturday, September 7, 2013 at the University of Pennsylvania.
As a new semester kicks off at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) campus, the Philadelphia Family Church’s ministry team and myself, Pastor Shota Iwasaki, felt urged to reach out to students and came up with an idea for a community breakfast.
On Saturday morning, the ministry team and young volunteers set up a tent, tables and chairs, along with sign-up sheets for various activities.
The ministry team advertised and posted around the UPenn campus some posters and flyers for a Pancake Community Mix “All You Can Eat Pancake and Coffee Breakfast for $2” for Saturday, September 7, 2013.
On Saturday morning, we set up a tent, tables and chairs outside with the help of youth of our Philadelphia Family Church community. We also prepared sign-up sheets for Qigong Meditation, an Open Mic Night, a TED (Technology Entertainment and Design). Talk Cafe, an Italian Cooking Class, a World Peace Ambassador Discussion and Ultimate Frisbee.

A group of young Unificationists stood at a corner near a McDonald’s fast- food restaurant in “University City” and passed out flyers. As a result, 25 students came to our pancake breakfast, resulting in four people signing up for the TED Talk Cafe, one for Open Mic, two for Italian cooking, one for Ultimate Frisbee, and two for a World Peace Ambassador Discussion.
Students in the foreground checked out the programs, while students in the background enjoyed the pancake breakfast.
Mike Diamond, Young Adult Unificationist leader and UPenn student, sent out an invitation through Facebook and a friend responded that he wanted to perform at our Open Mic. Another Pancake Breakfast is planned for Saturday, September 14.
