Thursday, September 17, 2009 Serving Helena Food Share - Be The Change

This last Wednesday, September 16, a group of us from Encounter Church gathered to serve the Helena Food Share and support the awesome difference they make in our community.

There was something for everyone to do. We took on whatever projects they assigned our group including washing carts and baskets, filling and labeling 150 bags of oats, and organizing potatoes, eggs, and plastic bags.

I've recently seen the Food Share in action and they are a blessing to the many neighbors here in Helena who need a helping hand when it comes to being able to put food on the table.

We were eager to serve because we see it as just another way to share God's love in tangible way by "being the change" in Helena.

What an awesome way to make a difference, demonstrate God's crazy love in action, and engage our culture! We invite you to to Be The Change in Helena and join us in our next project at Encounter Church.

Great photos of the effort are on Facebook here.
