IGNITING CHANGE IN YOUR COMMUNITY
Over the next month, we will be sharing stories of Feed the Need Missions’ volunteers serving in various capacities. No matter how one serves, the mission is still the same: to feed people physically and spiritually.
When people think about getting involved with Feed the Need Missions, they often think about the “front line” (our weekly site locations). While that is a large part of what we do, that is not the only way to get involved.
It takes much more to keep our organization running, allowing us to maintain consistency in our communities by providing weekly physical, emotional, social, and spiritual support.
Feed the Need Missions maintains a small staff to help us give as much as we can back to our communities. Which means we are always in need of help from our volunteers.
We understand that not everyone enjoys speaking or engaging with people. We can assure you that you have a skill, talent, or knowledge that could help us ignite change in our communities and impact God’s Kingdom.
Jeremy
A few years ago, Jeremy and some friends saw a need in their community and wanted to respond. They had an idea to provide meals for people, but they weren’t entirely sure how it would look. After church one day as they were brainstorming, a staff member from his church overheard their conversation and it was mentioned to the pastor, and he connected him with Feed the Need Missions. And long story short, the La Grange site was born.
Jeremy has been the site coordinator for the La Grange site since day one. He and his family are all involved in serving their community every week, and they have truly been changed by this experience.
“You come for whatever reason and you don’t even realize what starts changing you, and then that goes out and changes families, schools, it changes the whole community,” Jeremy told us.
Jeremy came up with the idea of starting our Give Back Beef program after realizing that in order to make a site sustainable, it needed to be supported financially as well. This idea truly meets needs and ignites change.
There is a place for you here at Feed the Need Missions. We are here to answer your questions about how you can get involved—we need you. Do you feel called? Will you step out in faith and ignite change in your community today?
