Ask Kathy<br />

Kathy, please explain the role of our Fellowship Fund and how it functions.<br />

The Fellowship Fund is a program designed to help families in need with rental assistance, help paying a utility<br />

bill, and access to our food pantry. Funds for this program are provided by our church members (thank you all<br />

very much!). Food items are purchased for a very nominal cost through our local Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and<br />

many items are free. For example, the week of August 20 we purchased three varieties of fresh salad greens,<br />

breaded whole grain chicken strips and frozen whole chickens for an amazing $3! Several months ago we applied<br />

for and were granted a brand new upright freezer. This freezer currently resides in the CEB at the rear of our<br />

fellowship hall. Our food pantry is available to anyone in need. We serve those with appointments each<br />

Wednesday as well as anyone who calls our office and requests help. We are thankful to all those who have made<br />

this program possible.<br />
