Yes--we can all help FEED THE NEED. You probably remember me talking about feeding the hungry around the world. It is easy to associate hunger with far-away places, but we have almost 350,000 food deprived people right here in Iowa. Now for the breaking news! The "bigger and better" Urbandale Food Pantry moved last month (April, 2025) to a new location at 7901 Douglas Ave.This location serves an expanded area in and around Urbandale so they need to fill those shelves.That gives us the opportunity to share our abundance of non-perishable food, personal care products, and baby items, such as diapers with those in need.

If you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday.(ESV) (Isaiah 58: 10)

Creekside Church Awana Club donated this collection of delicious and nutritious non perishable items to the Urbandale Food Pantry. What a blessing to everyone!
