Upcoming Events in July and August

June has come and gone, and the warm summer days of July have taken its place. The 5K Run and Golf Tournament were a great success, and we are truly grateful for the support the community gave us for them both. The events will help us to further our programs here at Greenhouse Ministries so that we can better serve others.

This month, we are having a major food drive to restock our food pantry. Previously called the "Generosity in Motion Food Drive," the drive will enable us to help so many families and people in Murfreesboro. With so many people out of work and unable to support their families alone, the food pantry program is more vital than ever.

On July 23rd, we will be having an all day food drive. You can drop off food at Greenhouse Ministries, 410 W. Lytle Street, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and volunteers will be on hand to bring the food into the building. Also, if needed, you will be given a donation form for tax purposes. The food drive will be broadcast continuously all day on Moody Radio, so tune in to listen to our progress!

We need dry goods such as macaroni and cheese, cereals, oatmeal and pasta, and canned goods like meat, fruit and vegetables. All goods need to be non-perishable.

When you drop off a bag of food, you are doing more than feeding a person. You are helping to give them the hope to sustain their lives and keep going, to not give up. So stop by Greenhouse Ministries on July 23rd, and help us to plant HOPE in the 'Boro!

Stay tuned for more details about the "Shoes for Orphan Souls" drive coming up in August!
