WE'RE SO BLESSED
We were so blessed last week to receive non-perishable family meal boxes containing family meals from SERV International. SERV International is based in Canton and is a local outreach ministry, they use food to share Christ. They physically and spiritually feed people and develop communities in some of the most remote areas of the world. A big Thank You to Forrest at Biglife for helping us connect with Steve and Brian at SERV International.
We will be using these boxes to supplement our Summer Meal Program. In addition, we will distribute what we can within the community.
Back To School Bash
