Free to Talk Ministries (our ministry) partnered with Heritage Cares Food Pantry to deliver their 9,800 pounds of food to their pantry today. The church's care ministry has been supporting between 125-175 families per week in the local community with groceries at no cost to those in need.
One family of six, that we brought to the food pantry three weeks ago, came to the church with us the following Sunday. Later that afternoon, we were blessed enough to lead all six of the family members in a prayer to commit their lives to Christ. The family has been attending the church every service for the past three weeks.
Our ministry of reaching out to those in the community in need has already begun. We are beginning to schedule seminars focused on marriage, family, and finances beginning February 2010. The third part of our ministry is preparing for disaster relief response counseling. There will be more information to come. Once we receive our 501(c)(3) nonprofit status then we will be able to receive assistance for setting up our website and other ministry needs. Please be in prayer that we will receive our nonprofit status soon.
Thank you so much to our family who have already supported us!
