Food For The Poor is the number one international relief and development charity in the United States, feeding 2 million poor every day. Our Christian relief programs and projects are helping children and the poorest of the poor by providing food, housing, health care, education, water projects, emergency relief and micro-enterprise assistance in the Caribbean and Latin America.
Rev. Daniel Otto brought us a message about Food for the Poor in our worship services on May 2. The door offering received that day was about $2000, almost enough to build one home. Your contributions can go a long way toward feeding and houseing the poor of this area. For example, $25 provides 20 chicks; $90 provides a family with a goat; $205 provides a water pump. There is so much we can share with those living in destitution.
Our Summer Sunday School and VBS offerings this year will all be going to support Food for the Poor. If you would like to make a special gift or know more about specific needs, there is a catalog in the church office.
