The Minnesota FoodShare Campaign brings together organizations, businesses, faith communities, and individuals to help stock and support the capacity of nearly 300 food shelves around the state.
From March 1 - 31 our Open Door Family will be collecting food & supplies to help restock CEAP, Cross Services and MELA food shelves.
As you purchase your donation, take a moment to pray for the individuals who will be receiving them. Donations can be dropped off in the Gathering Place until March 31.
We will also be doing a competition in OD Kids to see which classroom can collect the most food. Bring your donations to church on Sunday mornings. The winning classroom will get to participate in a snack party and gym time with Pastor Dave and Sarah Pederson!
OD Students are also doing a competition to see which team can collect the most food. Students can bring donations Wednesday nights or Sundays and the team collecting the most will win a team pizza party!
You can also donate online directly to CEAP, Cross Services, and MELA's food shelf.
