This is just a thank you that I wanted to pass along, as there are many people who are helping with this ministry:

Dear Food For Friends:

What a wonderful service you provide!
Thank you so much for your time and generosity in providing meals for my family.
May God Bless each of you, as he has certainly blessed us by bringing you into our lives.

Love in Christ,
A FFF recipient

We have a couple in the congregation that has been burdened with cancer.  We’d like to provide them a meal each week over the next several months to lighten this burden.  Would you be interested in making them a meal and delivering it to them?  Please contact Julie Kabe at 763-682-2889 or FFF@zionbuffalo.org.

Are you interested in making a meal for the freezer sometime over the next year?  Our plan is to help ease this family’s burden a bit by providing them a couple of meals a month.  What you would do is make and package a meal for the freezer, put the meal in the church freezer (labeled for the family) and then simply call the family to tell them “it’s in the freezer!”  The family is up at church a lot and will pick it up.  If you are interested, please contact the church or send an email to FFF@zionbuffalo.org and indicate which month works best for you.  Don’t worry about having to remember what month you signed up for – we will send you a reminder during that month.  Thank you for your consideration in helping this family.

Are you interested in making and delivering a meal for a family that just had a baby?  They live behind the middle school.  It’s a family of 2 adults and 2 kids (one being the newborn who you wouldn’t need to cook for!)  If you are interested, please contact the church or send an email to FFF@zionbuffalo.org.  Thank you!

This family is going through some rough times:  going through divorce and the mom is unable to work as she needs to care for one of her children with medical conditions.   It would be wonderful if we could help ease the burden on this family by bringing them meals 2x month.   Please email FFF@zionbuffalo.org or call the church if you are interested in helping.   Warm meals as well as freezer meals would be greatly appreciated.  Please pray for this family.

This family is going through some though times:  their 16-year-old is battling cancer and the Dad is out of work.   Please consider making and delivering a warm meal or even making up a freezer meal (if you bring the freezer meal up to church, we’d even arrange delivery!)  Please send email to FFF@zionbuffalo.org or contact the church at 763-682-1245.  Please pray for this family.

…and would welcome meals.  Please send email to FFF@zionbuffalo.org or call the church (763-682-1245).  I know this is Food For Friends, but given the time of year, I thought it might be nice to take up a little fund for some Christmas gifts for at least the 3rd grade boy — if you’re interested in donating to a Christmas Gift fund, please drop the money off at church clearly labeled House Fire Christmas Fund.  Please keep this family in your prayers.

Food For Friends is a ministry to deliver warm and freezer meals to our fellow brothers and sisters in need. They will be doing a couple of mini-freezer cooking sessions on Friday,  October 9 and Tuesday October 13 from 9:15–11:15 am. If you are interested in helping, please contact Julie Kabe at 682-2889 or fff@zionbuffalo.org.
