GO MINISTRY

Children's Hunger Fund Food Pak:
Come join us on GO Sunday! We will be partnering with Children’s Hunger Fund to pack roughly 2,000 Food Paks to help those in need on Sunday, November 7th from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM. All ages are welcome to attend this event under the tent.

The Food Paks will be sent to the Philippines, where there is tremendous need. As already one of the top 10 poorest nations in the world, Coronavirus has devastated the nation’s economy. The local church is struggling to meet the challenge, and CHF is responding by sending thousands of Food Paks to equip local churches to provide hunger relief and most importantly the hope of the gospel. Join us to serve this critical need!
