Through a kind-hearted Kiwi in Timaru, a feeding ministry started through Food Haven.
He and his family had meals now and then at the café.
One day, while having lunch, he asked how he could share the meals with those who couldn’t afford them. Thus, we talked about starting a feeding ministry.
To allow us to find people in need, I got in touch and met Jacob Howan, Corps Officer of The Salvation Army, as I know they have an ongoing welfare program.
He agreed to collaborate in administering the feeding program by issuing the meal vouchers that the recipients will redeem at Food Haven.
The program started officially on 19th March 2018.
The Kind Kiwi hopes the initiative will inspire others to donate and support the feeding ministry.
The Feeding Program is a prelude to a bigger vision. The donor plans to establish a social centre in Marchwiel that would offer free clinics, counselling, and other ministries.
For those who don’t know, Food Haven is the cafe my wife and I operated to support the Lord’s ministry here in New Zealand.
To God be the glory!
