Church Steps Up to Support 4/20 Celebrants in San Francisco

After the city canceled its official 4/20 event due to budget constraints, the Church of Ambrosia is providing essential services at Hippie Hill.

The Church of Ambrosia is offering over 30 porta-potties, a medical tent, and water at Hippie Hill for the expected influx of visitors.
Despite the official cancellation, thousands are anticipated to celebrate 4/20 at Hippie Hill, traditionally a major gathering spot.
The church views the gathering as a 'religious pilgrimage,' equating it to a journey to Mecca for cannabis users.
Local merchants and the church have collaborated to ensure safety and manage the crowd, amid reduced city support.
San Francisco's budget cuts led to the cancellation of the official event, prompting community and church intervention.
