Check out a few FOODSOURCE buying photographs taken June 23, 2001
FOODSOURCE is a Christian food-buying program. Through the power of high volume purchasing FOODSOURCE is able to buy and distribute quality food items at a considerable savings.
FOODSOURCE distributes pre-ordered food to churches and organizations that are established "host sites." Distribution day is held one Saturday every month. The dates for the monthly FOODSOURCE distributions can be found on the FOODSOURCE Planning Calendar and they are scheduled for one year. Volunteers within these organizations break the food down into individual units so it can be dispersed at the local distributions.
Participants can pre-order and pre-pay for FOODSOURCE food packages by contacting an organization in their area. The local organization accepts orders and money from participants in their area. The order and payments are sent in to the central office by the deadline set on the FOODSOURCE Planning Calendar.
The mission of FOODSOURCE is to demonstrate God's love to others as they reach out into the community with hands-on good news of Jesus. Food is a common denominator with all people. Many people who would not go to church service will go to church to purchase a food package. FOODSOURCE open many doors of opportunity for churches to reach their community.
