Stamp Out Hunger: May 09, 2009

This weekend you can help make a difference in your town by participating in the "Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive" for more information check your mailbox or click here. The idea is simple.

1. place bags filled with nonperishable food item next to your mailbox
2. your letter carrier will pick them up and deliver them to local food banks

at last...

hello blogger network. we're working on a bunch of stuff for Fast Food Ministries and hopefully we'll be in full swing soon!! in the meantime we'd love for you to check out a few things:

5 days in May is a campaign that you can read more about here: we know that it's already May 4th but I think that you can do this any of the days in May!! (I know I am) if so have fun and challenge a few friends!!!

the other really fun event is the Great American Bake Sale: at church we hosted one, actually two last year and had a blast. it brought so much attention to something that is looked over everyday!! find out more here.

have fun and keep looking for ways that you can change the world!!

More than 12.4 million children in America are at risk from hunger. 12.4 million - that’s one in six children. Consequences include poorer health, fatigue, hospitalization, behavioral difficulties and impaired scholastic performance. Share Our Strength aims to change that.

"Souper Bowl"

Hello world of blooggers! Sorry that it's been so long. We're in the process of revamping Fast Food Ministries and hope that you're encouraged to look for ways that you can change the world!!

The Super Bowl is right around the corner and with that in mind I wanted to introduce you to the "Souper Bowl of Caring". Our home church set a goal of 150 cans of soup before Super Bowl Sunday. If you would like more information visit: www.souperbowl.org or www.crossroadsnsb.org

Thanks for checking in and helping to make a difference in the lives of those around us!!
