First Week of Food

This has been an exciting week at 5 and 2 Ministry.  We packed and distributed our first week of food to students in Kindergarten and 1st grade.  We had minimal issues and overall it was a huge success.  We packed almost 3 weeks of food tonight with a total of 16 volunteers and most were school age children which was a very touching experience for these kids who want to make a difference in other children's lives.  We prayed over the bags and will be looking for consistent volunteers to pack on a monthly or bi-monthly basis.  We distribute a large amount of food each week and continue to accept monetary and food donations.  If you would like to volunteer or donate in any way, please visit our website at 5and2ministry.com.  Thank you and God Bless-

January Board Meeting

The 2nd board meeting in January was held and we are making lots of progress towards our launch date of March 3rd,  The board will be meeting weekly until then so we can finish shelving, inventory, establish par levels and packing strategies.  We will be sending the opt-out letters home to all parents of all Kindergarten and 1st grade students in CCS School District before they go home for winter break the last week of February.  So excited and thankful for the progress!!

An Introduction~

It has been nearly a week since we launched our social media for 5 Loaves & 2 Fish Ministry. What a blessed and thankful week. The beginning of this ministry began when a calling was placed on a group of people’s hearts who identified and wanted to do more for children suffering from childhood hunger. It also began as a labor of love to serve and give back in the communities we live and were raised in. It is our hope that God’s love will be shown through the efforts of this ministry. The story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 from a basket of 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish was our inspiration. Our deep love for children will continue to be the driving force behind our ministry. For Jesus said ““Let the little children come to me, do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.” Matthew 19:14.
