Following the example of Jesus when feeding the crowd with just 5 loaves and 2 fish, this ministry’s goal is to feed the hungry of the Brookings area. From 3:00-5:00pm each Thursday afternoon, volunteers distribute produce and bakery items provided by our local Wal-Mart and HyVee stores, canned goods from The Emergency Food Assistance Program, hygiene packs, and a food item of the month. The distribution is held at Ascension Lutheran Church, 2030 3rd St, Brookings, SD. If you would like to get involved with Feeding Brookings, you could provide hygiene items or food of the month donations. HYGIENE ITEMS include:
toilet paper
bars of bath soap
shampoo
toothpaste
FOOD OF THE MONTH:
We will select a different food for each month. Please see our website, www.feedingbrookings.org for more information. Bring your contributions to Ascension at any time throughout the week. If you are in need or are able to help our neighbors in need, spread the word!
