After purchasing the food and getting it set up to pack in boxes – see H.E.R.E. and then packing the boxes and loading them on the truck – see H.E.R.E. – we unloaded the boxes at Colvin Elementary on Monday morning. Not as many workers needed for this phase but they had to have strong backs!
Thank you to The Blues Brothers Realty Company for the loan of the truck. We couldn’t take on this project without a big truck to work with.
Every box of food gets a jug of juice.
350 boxes of food and 350 jugs of juice waiting for Wednesday to be taken home.
Each box includes:
3 lbs of rice
Quick Oats
Cut Green Beans
Fruit Cocktail
Instant Mashed Potatoes
Pinto Beans
Instant Corn Masa
Bath Tissue
Canned Chicken Breast
Vienna Sausage
Tuna
Cream Corn
Peanut Butter

This is one of those projects that blesses all the way around. Those receiving food are blessed. The school is blessed by watching their students be blessed. And we, as a church are blessed beyond belief. Filling a need, spending time together, working together for a common goal. - and the blessings go on and on.
