YOUTH STRIKE for CHRIST MISSION Project 2010

The Youth Strike for Christ team believes a vital part of our Christian life is serving others and supporting those who are in mission.  This year’s Youth Strike for Christ Mission Project is:

Operation: FILL THE TRUCK!!

We are asking that each Youth Strike for Christ attendee help fill the truck heading to Bidwell Riverside. 

We will have a truck from Bidwell Riverside on site to fill with food!  

When you come to YSFC, take your food donation to the Polk County Convention Center.  We will have Bidwell Riverside truck on site to fill with food.

YOU can help us accomplish this mission by bring one item from the list, but we will take as many as you want to bring!  Your local church congregation can help too!  Start a Youth Strike for Christ Food drive at your church right now and bring the food to YSFC 2010!

 A little about Bidwell Riverside…

If you stop at Bidwell Riverside Center on any given day, you will find a place bustling with activity. In our main building you will find our offices, and you will be greeted by someone as you enter. You will hear the sound of children playing and learning. Our Early Childhood Development Center will be working with children ages 18 months to five years of age to prepare them to be successful when they enter school.

If you go to our Direct Services Building you will see someone getting the needed information from people who are coming to ask for help through our Emergency Food Pantry or our Used Clothing Center. And you will find someone sacking the groceries to give to people who need that help. Volunteers will be working to sort clothing and hang them in our clothing center where people can choose what they need.

If you want to experience a place where exciting ways of bringing hope and help to people in need are happening, if you are looking for a place to volunteer, or if you wish to make a financial contribution where you know your gift will be used wisely and well, then Bidwell is the place for you!

Feel free to be in touch to ask questions, arrange a presentation or tour, bring donations of used clothing and food, or find out about ways to volunteer!

We are excited about what we do to help those in need, and invite you to partner with us in our work!

Someone from Bidwell Riverside will be at YSFC if you have more questions about this great ministry.
