Our Mission

To glorify God.

To sow seeds of faith where none is growing.

To give hope where there is little.

To show love for our neighbors as Christ commanded, especially those less fortunate.

To assist in providing for both material and spiritual needs.

And in so doing, taking back what the enemy has stolen.

Make A Donation

Your donations make an incredible difference. With every dollar, we can buy over $10 worth of food to help families in need. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization, so your donations are tax-deductible.
