Food Drive for CAM
June 8, 2010
“Whatever you did for one of the least of these my brothers of mine you did it for me.” ~ Matthew 25:40
All Saints will be supporting the Christian Assistance Ministry (CAM), which its Web site describes as
an ecumenical, non-profit charitable corporation that provides immediate, temporary assistance to individuals in crisis situations & enables those in need to move toward independence.
According to the San Antonio Food Bank, CAM is the second largest food distribution agency in Bexar County. The need for food goes up in the summer, and CAM is currently distributing more than 100 bags of groceries per day to hungry folks in our community.
You can help by taking your food donations to a food bin that will be placed in Ballard Hall beginning this Sunday, June 13, 2010.
