CHRIST Coalition San Antonio visits Nick’s Tacos
One of the great parts of Street News SA is getting out there and meeting the people.
On a recent Friday afternoon, Sara Lucy, founder of Street News SA, had the opportunity to speak during a CHRIST Coalition lunch and learn event.
Local pastors Lori Haecker and Rebekah McKay visited Nick’s Tacos, whose own pastor, Regina Navarro, hosted the event alongside her team.
The crew put on a delicious meal of Mexican beans and rice with enchiladas.
The restaurant was bustling with community advocates and neighbors of the community who had received or lent a helping hand at some time or other.
To lend some deeper insight, sitting at a breakout table a few weeks prior, at another CHRIST Coalition event on the Northside, I was amazed by the depth and breadth of the experiences that these women had participated in.
The pillars of that launch and learn were to keep families intact and to help foster children receive the best outcomes. Just three different ladies at one table had each cultivated lives rich in loving generosity that would impact hundreds, if not thousands. And that was simply one table of many. These lunch and learns are factories for output when all of these involved and like-minded souls come together to create change.
Pastor Regina and the whole family of Nick’s Tacos are called to keep serving the community through their restaurant and ministries.
Step inside Nick’s Tacos dining room, and you’ll notice a raised platform for people to share their testimony or a bit of the word.
The Humble 2 Serve Ministries also operates here, at 606 New Laredo Highway.
Inside, food and donations are organized, received, and delivered to those in need, and they also take on the role of mentoring and fostering local youth who have needed a support system.
The work keeps on for the Navarro family. Fostering youth, praying over their neighbors, serving hot meals, and leading songs and moments of fellowship are all in regular order.
And so is business as usual. The Nick’s Taco crew is celebrating a milestone.
Following the Friday community giving and gathering of the minds session, Nick’s Tacos opened their doors on Saturday to celebrate their 1-year business anniversary.
Nick’s Tacos is located at 606 New Laredo HWY in San Antonio, TX 78211. About 10 minutes from Boeing Center at Tech Port.
They are known throughout the area for their wonderful Tex-Mex cuisine, and operate meal catering that has a loyal following for events and parties.
