Details
The mission of Manna Ministry is to stand in the gap by providing emergency food assistance to Tidewater community families, while sharing hope in Jesus Christ.
Manna Ministry fills the gap from when crisis strikes to when families can receive services from the state and other non-profit organizations. It is a first step in the path out of poverty and misery. These families have no safety net and are primarily single mothers desperately trying to provide the foundational necessities of life; food and shelter. Usually, these mothers have applied for food stamps yet are waiting for them to arrive (usually a period of 2-4 weeks). Your help, generosity, and prayers can immediately fill stomachs, establish connections for long-term improvement, and demonstrate to our families how the love of Christ pursues them and finds them, wherever they are. An integral pillar of the ministry is the opportunity to connect our families with organizations created to provide them with education, training, and mentorship.
While we support Manna Ministry financially as a church, there are also numerous opportunities to serve - during the week, on the weekend, once a month, or whenever you can!
There are many ways to support the mission of Manna Ministry. You can help by shopping for, packing, and/or delivering food and supplies. You can help from home by praying for and/or connecting with families after their period of assistance from Manna has ended. Click HERE to sign up to volunteer with Manna Ministry!
