Feed the Need Boxing–A New Opportunity!

Sunday, JuneCanned-goods 5th

Life Bridge Christian Church 1pm-6pm (Help for all or part!)

All are welcome! Plan on joining us for this simple, yet fun family friendly service project!
Beginning at 1pm:
  • A simple lunch will be served
  • Set up of tables, boxes, etc. will be organized
  • Food sorted and boxed, and divided among the pantries
  • Pantry pick up is scheduled for 5pm!
In the past after Feed the Need has taken place at Town and Country, Student Ministry has gone up to NWI Food Bank to join others, organize and package the food items that have been donated. 

This year we are doing something different and all are welcome (elementary kids need to be accompanied by a supervising adult)!  As in the past the monetary donations will once again go to the NWI Food Bank who can do far more to feed those in need, but the actual food items will be boxed at Life Bridge and distributed to 4 local food pantries.  These pantries can often do more to meet needs as they have ongoing relationships with the people they serve.  This has the added benefit of pantries distributing food in the name of Jesus and spreading His love. 

Go God!  May this event feed both the body and the soul!
