PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW ! 

IN 2007 GOD …

·         Protected us from what could have been a devastating fire, and in turn replaced every lost item (and then some, a lot of somes). He also provided us with a new furnace and brought the community together in such an amazing way!

·         Opened up the door for us to buy an acre parcel of land (debt free $95,000) in Grove to build a much-needed building on. (We are now looking for the someone God intends to lead our capital campaign.)

·         Sent us an amazing army of volunteers (representing over 14 churches) to meet the daily food pick, distributing and clothing needs. He hand-picked each one, fitting them in the space that He created for them to fill!  We are praising God for His mighty provision!

·         Enabled us to meet the growing needs that arose, never leaving the shelves bare. He also allowed us to change our hours on Tuesdays to let us minister to working families that can’t come during the day.

·         Provided “From His Hands” ministry to feed our families with the Salvation Army’s canteen on Thursday evenings.

·         Blessed our back-to-school event bringing over 500 out to enjoy His abundant blessing! He also blessed the Shoe Box Gift for Kids ministry. Over 350 children received shoeboxes and blessing room gifts. (There were over 1,400 blessing room gifts for the families to receive!)

·         Extended favor to us as we were awarded numerous Grants to help maintain the center's daily operations, cover food & hygiene pantry expenses, provide financial assistance & help fund special events.

·         Blessed us with the ability to upgrade to computer files and launched the center’s website Groveoutreach.com
