Good Morning SERVE 6.8 Team,

This is our final week for Family Dinner Night, and we are finishing strong! Chick-fil-A is on the menu this week so let’s make sure we are sharing the big news with all our hungry friends and neighbors as we wrap up this phase of our COVID response. If you are wondering how much of an impact you have made, let me share some incredible highlights from the past 15 weeks:

  • You have served 7,029 families needing food, hygiene, and cleaning supplies.
  • 2,114 of you have volunteered at our church food distribution sites.
  • You have distributed over 130,213 lbs of food and relief supplies
  • You helped 111 businesses with Business Relief Funds
  • You have invested over $170,000 in businesses during our COVID response

I want to thank every one of you for dropping off food, shipping food, donating money and sharing our distribution info on social media!

So, what’s next? This week, in honor of our final Family Dinner Night, we are doing something special. We are calling it SERVE Week where many of our church distribution sites will be adding a pop up Resource Center to their food distribution efforts. This means families will have access to clothing and other financial care opportunities, please check out the graphic below for details about when and where families can get a great meal and so much more. We also plan on reopening our Resource Center next week, 7/14 from 3pm-6pm and 7/15 from 10am-1pm for drive through food distribution.  Our church partner teams have done such an amazing job running food distribution, that we are inviting them to continue serving at our Resource Center. If you would like to continue serving with your team, please let me know by replying to this email.

How can you continue to help?

  1. We need continued food support as our communities continue to battle the impacts of COVID so please keep dropping off food supplies and shipping them to us by checking out this shopping list.
  2. Summer is a great time to serve for you and your family! We need strong teams next week to run our food distribution at the Resource Center, restock product, and more! Check out this flexible schedule by clicking here to sign up.

I want to encourage you with the words of Jesus Himself from Matthew 5:14-19:

 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

Keep up the great work and remember that every good deed we do allows us to preach the Gospel message of Jesus Christ, our Lord and King. 

Thanks Team!

Mike Walker
