January news

January has been a quiet month of sorts...... a small decline in clients, bad weather, fewer monetary donations and less food donated as well. All expected in the first month of the year. Even a small decline in clients does not indicate that lots of food is not going out the door! The shelves are beginning to show the first of the year "bareness" and no food that comes in the door stays long. Ordering and buying has begun already.... oatmeal, rice, beans.... staples for our clients. The board is planning for renewed leadership, for a move to a more suitable location and for whatever the new economy might present. Your prayers, your strength and your help are coveted. We are still "feeding the hungry" and it will take all of us to continue that mission!
