When we shared our urgent need for food on social media, our community responded. Hours later and into the following week food showed up everywhere!
Boxes in hallways.
Bags at all the doorways.
Delivery drivers lost on the campus.
Priests in vestments with arms full of canned goods.
It was a little chaotic, a lot of fun, and incredibly beautiful. Every delivery was a reminder that this community shows up for one another. Amen to that!
Sadly, the food shortage we are facing isn't a temporary inconvenience. Food insecurity is a major problem in Columbus and Phenix city. Families keep coming for help and the traditional sources of food we have long relied on are strained not sufficient to sustain the need.
So, what are we doing about it?
