We can continue to do this work of feeding hungry people whose lives have been devastated by disasters only with the financial support of our brothers and sisters across the U.S. As we close out the year and you or your church family have funds remaining in the budget, you have a disaster account that you would like to close out or your new 2017 budget makes funds available, please know that if you decide to support this mission work we will give you updates, feed back and many photos of the work being done. We post updates and photos almost daily on FaceBook and we are also trying to get more views on Instagram. We also have a webpage to better keep you updated. One of the sections on the page shows each mission we have helped with since we started in 2008 another page shows all the Churches we have worked with.

Galatians 6 New International Version (NIV)
9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

Please pray for the thousands of people whose lives have been forever changed and for us as we show the love of the Lord to them by just providing a simple meal, supplies and a helping hand.

Many, many thanks to everyone who has help us with this work in any way. Happy New Year!!!
