NHBC distributes at least $20K of food to Crisp Co. community | Events

CRISP COUNTY, GA - News release from Fishermen For The Hungry

The accumulated efforts of Northern Heights Baptist Church, Ameris Bank, 50-60 Volunteers, The Fishermen For The Hungry, and the Albany Ga. Branch of the Second Harvest of South Georgia distributed 675 cases of groceries, weighing approximate 22,250 lbs, with a estimated retail value of just under $20,000.00 to our community Sat. February 18th.

Our volunteers not only distributed food for the body but also food for the soul by counseling with and praying for any specific needs requested by our recipients with approximately  75 recorded sessions with two people receiving salvation.

Bibles were given out to at least 200 recipients.

This was one of the most amazing and rewarding distributions we have ever had at N.H.B.C. 

We had ample food, had 50-60 smiling, loving, and caring volunteers from N.H.B.C., the community, other churches, and Ameris Bank. 

We had volunteers from our very young GA Girls to our Senior Adult men and woman and our volunteers logged in a total of 360 hours for the day

God’s grace and mercy was very evident by all the smiles from each and everyone participating.

Our next Food & Prayer Distribution will be held March 17th at Northern Heights Baptist Church and our goal is to distribution no less than 675 cases of food and as many prayers as requested.

The food is first come first served so come early, but we will never run out of prayers.

Each and everyone in our community invited to share in the blessings either as a recipient, a volunteer, or as a sponsor.

For more information, contact Dewey or Linda Mitchell at 229-273-0579 or any one of the Northern Heights Baptist Church Family.
