Feed My Starving Children Mobile Pack Event

King of Kings will host a Feed My Starving Children MobilePack event on September 7-8.  Meals will be packed onsite at King of Kings, making it easy for Woodbury residents to participate in this great family volunteer opportunity.  The event will need more than 400 volunteers to pack more than 200,000 life-saving meals.

The community is invited to volunteer and join in the festive, fun, spirit-filled atmosphere of a Feed My Starving Children MobilePack event.  All ages are welcome, volunteer shifts are only two hours in length.

About the photo:
In San Nicolas, Honduras, hungry children live around the perimeter of the region’s refuse dump. Their families have built shelter at this location because they can search the dump daily for food, clothing and other necessities.

The Director of Missions at King of Kings, Lisa Engh was excited to reach San Nicolas where King of Kings supports a “feeding center”, a location where small children receive warm, nutritious meals 2-3 times a week.

Earlier this summer, the feeding center received a food shipment from the Twin Cities-based Feed My Starving Children and its partner distributor in Honduras. “It was so exciting to see boxes of food shipped from Minnesota, stacked in the corner of the feeding center in Honduras,” said Lisa.  “It was so clear that this food was making a difference to the families in San Nicolas.”
