What is in the bag? Each day this summer over 1700 bags will be opened and set out on tables. These bags will be filled with fruit, popcorn, crackers, and cookies. The bags will then be delivered each day with a hot item like a taco, corn dog, pizza, or burrito. All of the food in the bag is bought fresh so it can be prepared quickly and in a uniform fashion.
Who receives the bag? The bags are loaded into six different trailers and delivered to the neighborhoods that Citychurch ministers in. The lunch is usually met with a smile and excitement from the child who receives it. The children who receive the lunch begin to look forward to it and depend on it.
Satisfying the Greater Hunger... Each lunch that we deliver will open a door to the lives of the children that we minister to each day at Citychurch. A lunch will feed a child for the day, but we have so much more to offer that child through The Hope Of Jesus Christ. Each week different neighborhoods are picked up for a Bible School in Tol Ware Park At Citychurch. They play games, do crafts, and are taught stories from the Bible. Then the kids are fed before they go home. Citychurch along with the help of volunteers will hold seven Bible schools in the park this summer and minister to over 800 children.

The Greater Need for Food... This Summer Citychurch will deliver over 1700 lunches a day to hungry kids. This number grows larger every year. This year people just like you will give the money that it takes to fill each of the 81,600 bags. Just one dollar is all it takes to fill one bag, so if you give ten dollars you can help feed ten children for one day. It's that simple.
