First let me introduce Tammy Taylor who has agreed to join our team. Tammy has a world of passion for Christ and is very excited about our ministry of serving the poor and supporting the Freedom Ministry volunteers and partners in Plainfield, NJ. Tammy will be taking the champion role in fundraising for us. Our next meeting will take place July 12th. Please check you calendars for availability.
A final huge thank you to Jeanette Branca for creating our new logo and supporting us as we finalized the design through one editing process. We are blessed that she "volunteered" after we begged her to do so. Thank you Jeanette, you are the best.
Freedom Ministry is now partnering with an Hispanic congregation using their facility. This is a huge positive step for the ministry and is providing many opportunities for cross congregation support and fulfillment. The facility plan is rounding into shape with the roof and the furnace replacement in the plan. Funding is being sought for both projects but labor has been identified for the program and hoping to find appropriate hardware for replacement materials. Habitat for Humanity is playing a key role in donating materials for the roof. This is huge.
Finally, Lyle Bailey has been in contact through his brother who has started a food program in North Carolina. The program is converting fresh vegetables into case lot for donation to clients. We have a commitment for 200 cases of mixed garden vegetables coming soon. The good Lord is amazing in his support and grace for us.
Thanks everyone for your foundational work on this ministry. We have moved far and many miles to go before we sleep.
