Our Church, Community, and Beyond:
One of our ministry priorities to individuals, seniors, and families in our communities, state, and world is to understand that many are struggling to provide for rent, food, utilities, transportation, medical costs and some of those individuals who come to us may feel ashamed or embarrassed to ask for help. But as soon as neighbors’ names are known when they sign-in, they share with us ways they prepare different dishes, we share recipes, talk about events of the week and their families and even share gifts made for us. Our neighbors like their ability to choose what they need. All of this is our attempt to share God’s love and blessings.
Each Thursday, Danny Fields and Bill Sbai pick up food from St. Vincent DePaul which is secured from Hoosier Hills Food Bank and Mid- West Food Bank. Dollar General also donates food almost weekly. At Easter, we were provided boxes of Easter baskets, and candies,—which we are still distributing each week. We also receive at least monthly food from a neighbor on Gatesville Rd., and a friend of St. David’s who fills a freezer with meat, favorite cereals, and other dairy products. On May 14th, Vicki King is celebrating her 80th Birthday and has asked for a birthday wish of 80 cans to fill our baskets with food for Mother’s Cupboard, our Giving Box, Brown County Weekend Backpacks, or St. Vincent DePaul. Canned meats and fruits are especially welcome.
As spring planting is in progress, we have requests for seeds and plant starts which we hope to begin soon.
