Feed My Starving Children Community Mobile Pack
December 2, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 4:30 pm
Help pack nutritious meals for kids who are facing starvation worldwide. Join us for a community-wide mobile food packing event with Feed My Starving Children at Assemblies of God Church on December 1 & 2, organized by the Pastors Prayer Fellowship.
Consider donations of money (the community is required to raise $30,000 to fund the packing event) and volunteering to help unload, setup, pack food or clean up. Packing shifts are 2 hours and other shifts include unloading (1-hour), set-up (2-hours) and clean-up (3-hours).
If you are hoping to pack as a family, here are some guidelines to consider:
- For safety reasons, children under the age of 5 are not allowed in our packing area (sorry, no exceptions)
- Grades K-2: 1 student to 1 adult*
- Grades 3-6: 3 students to 1 adult
- Grades 7-12: 4 students to 1 adult
*FMSC recommends that groups of youth be third grade or older. Learn more about volunteering here.

About Feed My Starving Children

The process is simple:
- People just like you donate funds for the meal ingredients.
- Volunteers hand-pack the meals.
- Meals are donated to FMSC food partners around the world.
- Kids are fed and lives are saved!
“The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.” – Proverbs 22:9
Faith is a Journey
You never really “arrive” at becoming a mature disciple maker. We are all called to continually grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus, to grow in love for others, to get better at blessing those around us and to increasingly share the love of Jesus with everyone. At GREFC we realize this through four key areas: Connect, Equip, Serve & Go!
