Welcome to POBLO-TX!
Across I-75 from our office here at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, refugee families are struggling with hunger. More and more refugee families living in Dallas are being affected by the recession and the continued rise in unemployment. For the past couple of months, our food pantry has seen non-perishable food donations decline. This seems to be a seasonal phenomenon where donations soar from the fall months through the winter, but decline from spring into summer. Hunger takes no vacation, so we need your help. We ask that you open your hearts and your cupboards to donate to this on going POBLO-TX food pantry ministry.
1. First, we will supply you with the bulletin inserts and wall posters announcing the drive.
2. Second, we provide you with a supply of brown Kraft grocery sacks. We've found it to be very effective to distribute these to interested members following/leaving a service. They then take the sacks home and return the next Sunday with whatever they are led to donate. The sack is a reminder during the week about the drive as well as a convenient way to transport the items.
3. Third, we will pick up the collected food items with our staff and truck. When members return with their donations, simply set them aside in the Narthex or in a nearby room and we will move them from your designated drop off point to our truck. No need to sort or inventory the items, our staff will do that.
Once you decide to become part of this effort, we simply need the name and contact information for our 'point of contact' individual (the person we talk to in your church).
