Upcoming Events

July’s Mission Offering is designated for Samaritan’s Purse Food Ministry. We like the flexibility this ministry provides as it not only feeds people living in famine conditions but also provides individual families with a reliable, ongoing source of food, which can, in time, make them self-sufficient.

 

For instance, we gave $402.10 to provide emergency rations of grain to starving people. The grain might be wheat, oats, barley, rye, or rice depending on what part of the world is being served. But wherever the people are helped, they will receive a grain compatible with their diet that will provide several nutritious meals. We also contributed money to provide a week of food for 20 severely malnourished children. This food is extra high in vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to get them through those tough initial days nursing them back to health. We also contributed money to a hot meal program that will feed 23 children for a week.

 

38 different families received a dozen chickens, which can provide nutritious eggs to be eaten or incubated into more chicks. If these families manage their eggs and chickens well, they can one day have a reliable ongoing source of food, while also possibly providing items to sell or barter. 5 farmers received 30 seedlings, which can provide valuable fruit as well as much needed shade. 7 families received goats, which can provide valuable milk, butter, and cheese. 2 farmers received a large piece of livestock such as an ox or cow, that can be used as a draft animal enabling the farmer to produce more crops. Cows, of course, also provide valuable milk, cream, butter, and cheese. And 6 farmers received disease-resistant plants and seeds, planting tools, and valuable training in successful farming techniques.

 

Please help support these efforts to feed people around the world. We can’t feed everyone, but we certainly can make a difference in the lives of those we are able to feed.   If you would like to donate, please make checks payable to Trinity Lutheran Church and note on check memo or in offering envelope “Mission Fund.”  There will be a basket in the narthex or it can be put in the offering plate with the general offering.
