September 21, 2020
Where did this month go? I could hardly believe it when I checked my calendar this morning. September 21! That means that our Fall Family Clothing Distribution will be next week. We have a lot to do to finish preparing. We have received many beautiful clothing donations. Most everyone followed the guidelines and we say a bit "thank you" for that. We've been busy preparing for what's ahead. The holidays are really right around the corner. We've been making some updates to our building to make sure that we can serve our families as the colder winter months come our way. We won't be able to do distributions in the parking lot through the winter months so we're making it as safe as possible for families to access our facility in a safe and limited capacity and to receive the help that they need with much love, understanding and kindness as is always our desire. Plans are already underway for our 56th Annual Thanksgiving food distribution. Our goal is to provide a food box filled with everything to prepare a Thanksgiving Day meal and special breakfast for 800 local families We will be posting our food and volunteer needs to help make it happen in the very near future. Our Thanksgiving campaign this year is going to take special preparation and a lot of time to ensure that we have what we need to meet the needs of many families that are struggling and may not have enough to provide the special holiday meal that we all love to eat and share with our loved ones. We're going forward with strategy, caution, hope and joy. We are praying, thinking, planning and doing. We are always moving forward and evolving as the days go by. It's good and we are happy to serve through these challenging days. We have served almost 8000 food parcels since March! That is a lot of food. Close to 200 tons. We keep packing each week as we collect and purchase food to fill the bags. We thank God every day for providing and we continuing filling the bags and serving. So many have helped us to fill those bags each week. We are grateful. Over 22,000 meals were served in partnership with local organizations through the drive-thru at Huntington Assembly on Wednesdays and Fridays since March. We are taking a break through the end of September. The numbers have gone down and we need to prepare and save for the coming busier months when food need historically increases. We are grateful to EVERYONE who has helped in so many ways.You have been A BLESSING. You have PRAYED FOR US. You have CALLED US. You have ENCOURAGED US. You have GIVEN and WE APPRECIATE this more than we can say. We do need CONTINUED SUPPORT to CONTINUE to help our community and we are THANKFUL to be able to work and meet the needs here locally.
