DG: Feeding Hope: How a Church Pantry Changes Hearts, Communities, and the Public Square
Description
Could a simple bag of groceries and a prayer become a doorway to revival—awakening gratitude, healing, and faith among neighbors who just need to know they’re not alone?
Deselene outlines the evolution and logistics of Valley Assembly’s food pantry: how it started small, grew through partnerships (Feed Spokane, Second Harvest, and church members), and now feeds 60–80 people weekly, including refugees, working families, and the elderly. The ministry is fueled not by fear or scarcity, but by an “abundance mindset,” praying with every guest, partnering with other churches, and sharing stories of jobs, housing, and spiritual encouragement—demonstrating that the church’s public witness is strongest when it meets practical needs with compassion, faith, and unity in Christ.
