Zarephath Christian Church collects shelf-stable food items on a regular basis. Food is distributed to those who come to us with a need as well as to the young men who join us for Urban Impact each month. Our goal is to provide higher quality and healthier food items. We're rallying friends and families to fill a bag for Urban Impact. One weekend each month, 100 young men join us on the Zarephath campus from New Brunswick, Camden, the Bronx, Brooklyn & Queens. (See the Urban Impact link for more information.) We to show Jesus' love in a tangible way to the boys and their families by send each young man home with some food to share with his family. Here's a list of the items we're asking for to fill each bag:
1 pkg raisins or applesauce
1 bag (2 lbs. ) whole grain rice
1 box old fashioned oats (not instant)
1 jar tomato sauce
1 can beans or dried bean soup mix
2 cans soup
3 cans tuna or chicken
1 lb. pasta
You can drop your bag off at the ministry center during our open hours (see directions and hours above) or place it in the bin in the hallway of the main chapel.
