Meeting News
Each month members are invited to contribute to the designated special offering on the last Sunday of each month. In November the offering went to CommUnity Crisis Center where one mission of the organization is the Iowa City Food Bank. W.B. Members have donated many items this past year from toilet tissue to canned goods and cereal. This outreach is vital for anyone in Johnson County who may have food insecurities. Here are the combined statistics from the food bank in September and October:
Families securing food each month: 4,150
Average visits per day: 192 families
Home deliveries: 408 per month
Total pounds of food distributed in Sept. and Oct.: 362,046 pounds
Volunteers are always needed to help put out donated food and help families go through the lines. It's a great opportunity to remember Jesus' teaching to feed the hungary and poor!
