Today we had difficult cases that really made us sad and question the "system"....but we try to encourage and uplift every family who walks though our doors. See, our mission, is to share the compassion and hope of Christ while striving to alleviate hunger in our community. There are many days, that a hug or a prayer are so much more important than the food recieved.![]()

Sometimes.... we just need to be there for people, no matter what life has going on. We each have a responsibility to encourage those around us. Share a smile, open the door, or give someone a call. Make a difference in the lives of the people around you. ![]()
