Last Week's Food Pantry Update

I hope that each of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know that this is very late, but we left for Atlanta immediately following the food pantry ministry last Tuesday. As John mentioned yesterday, we were able to help 53 people in 25 minutes before we ran out of food. We joked that Troy needed to enter one of those bagging competitions...he has gotten very fast! Joann has been coming each week since God broadened our scope. She is blind and comes with a neighbor. On Tuesday, she had her neighbor find me and asked specifically that we pray for her. She is going to Moffit to seek treatment for very advanced cancer. My heart broke for her. We were so busy, I didn't get the chance to ask her if she knows the Hope-giver. I have been regretting the missed opportunity ever since. I can't wait until Tuesday! I hope that some of you will find the time to come help so that we can take advantage of every moment we get to spend with each person who comes to us for help...like John said anyone can hand out food. We have so much more to offer!
