Annual Boise Rescue Mission Food Drive Continues

September 7, 2009

The food drives ends Sunday, Sept 13 and it’s going very well. It appears that we will exceed what we donated last year (842 pounds). In a time of economic hardship for many, the caring and compassion of the people of UBC is a sign that the Lord’s work is our mission.

Items still needed:

  • Canned Vegetables (#10 Size Preferred)
  • Canned Fruit (#10 Size Preferred)
  • Canned Meats (#10 Size Preferred)
  • Boxed or Hot Cereal
  • Rice
  • Pasta
  • Spaghetti Sauce
  • Pancake Mixes and Syrup
  • Macaroni and Cheese

The Mission is on pace to serve 320,000 meals this year. They are also on pace to bring 370 more people to Jesus Christ in 2009.

“For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in.” – Matthew 25:35

“And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’ ” – Matthew 25:40
