On Wednesday, an FCC Reach Team of over 10 people met to serve over at the Golden Corner Food Pantry. It was a great time for folks to get acquainted that had never met and serve people in need together in the name of Jesus. The pantry serves about 1150 families per month, including many Senior Citizens on Mondays, and they can always use a lot of volunteers for boxing food, deliveries, store pickups, and more. According to several team members, so much was accomplished by our Reach team that they had enough meat supplies boxed for Senior Citizens for three weeks out!
FCC will be sending Reach Teams and presenting individual serve opportunities as our partnership with Golden Corner Food Pantry continues each month. There are some great individual opportunities available currently. The Pantry Director (Richard Kulper) has let us know that he still has several needs for specific volunteer tasks.
GCFP Immediate Individual Volunteer Needs:
- People to serve as pick up substitutes for Food Lion and Bi Lo. Volunteers would arrive at store 9:15am and then head to food pantry by 10:ooam, and be finished by around 10:45am.
- Volunteer to go to "Gifts in Kind" once a month. Can either pull the GCFP trailer or just go to help. This person would leave the food pantry at 7am or 9 am., return 11:30 or 1pm.
This is a great time helping an incredible ministry reach out and serve those in need. Our next Reach Team will be serving at Golden Corner Food Pantry on TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13th from 2-4pm.
