It seems almost impossible to meet these needs, but there is one need that everyone can help meet. Every one that calls is asked if they would be willing to accept a visit from a church in their area. Almost all say yes. This is such a great way to show God's love in action - to go out to their homes and pray with them.
Special thanks to all Love INC supporters for assistance in meeting the needs of families this past month. Please continue to pray for office volunteers.

Angel Food is available in a quantity that can fit into a medium-sized box at $30 per unit. Each month's menu is different than the previous month and consists of both fresh and frozen items with an average retail value of approximately $60.
Generally, one unit of food assists in feeding a family of four for about one week or a single senior citizen for almost a month. The food is all the same high quality one could purchase at a grocery store. There are no second-hand items, no damaged or out-dated goods, no dented cans without labels, no day-old breads and no produce that is almost too ripe.
There are no restrictions, conditions or forms to fill out to purchase Angel Food. The food relief program is open to one and all. Anyone may purchase an unlimited number of boxes of Angel Food by placing an order with a local Angel Food host site.
Three local sites to order from: Living Bread Ministries in
Please announce the needs list to your congregation, put in your bulletin, post on your bulletin board or display electronically prior to your services. As always - thank you for all you do!!
