……....CRUMBS

Reaching out to those in hard to reach places where the need is great and all hope seems lost,

Southeastern Food Bank ventured to Jamaica last month. We partnered up with the Jamaica

Baptist Union and Food for The Poor from March 27-31 in what can only be described as an

incredible move of God. Mark Anthony and our new Outreach Coordinator Vinny Correale

were able to help 6 different denominations of churches and a youth missions team from Glad

Tidings in Ocoee Fl. come together to minister to a community that literally sits on top of a

trash heap right outside of Kingston called Riverton Meadows. We were able feed over 193

families and saw 68 people give their lives to the Lord for the first time. It was an amazing

week where new friendships and partnerships were made and strengthened for the glory of

God. Please continue to pray for our new brothers and sisters in Christ in Jamaica!!

Relying on God for our “Daily Bread” and praying for peace and His provision. April 2017

Our Mission Statement: “Caring for those in need by sharing life’s necessities and a message of hope.”

“How wonderful and pleasant it is when brothers live

together in harmony! Psalm 133:1

whelming success. Thank you to Publix, who provided 2 semi

trucks full of food, as well as individual stores who provided

baked goods! Thanks goes out to Ocoee High School for

providing the facility and support staff to make this happen. A

big thank you goes out to Greg Rau and his team of Disney

packing all the food boxes. Also, thank you to Jason Walker

and his team who coordinated the set up for the packing. Last
