As we re-imagine our outreach ministry at All Saints and Ascension, Northwoods, we have partnered with the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis to distribute food in our community.
Beginning on the third Saturday of July 2023, we began a drive-through food giveaway. along with being one of more than 250 churches participating in the Grill to Glory initiative.
We will continue to grow the food ministry. To date, we have distributed 13 racks of bread and 144 food boxes. We have served and blessed 78 families in our food distribution.
We are also partnering with Dedicated Medical Center, who passed out literature and signed up potential new patients during the drive-through event.
The drive-through giveaway will be on the third Saturday of every month. Please share our giveaway with your congregations!
