From FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF BOWLING GREEN

The First Christian Church of Bowling Green (FCC), 875 Haskins Road, will host its monthly drive-thru community meal and food distribution on Friday, Sept. 12, from 5 – 6 p.m. Those who are experiencing food insecurity are encouraged to participate in this free meal. Participants are also encouraged to pick up a limited number of groceries, toiletries, breads, and pastries, at no charge.

Participants should arrive between 5 – 6 p.m. at the FCC parking lot and remain in their vehicle. Volunteers will take participants orders, hand deliver the meals, and direct people to the groceries and toiletries. There will be no early entry for the shopping portion of this event.

St. Thomas More University Parish of Bowling Green and the Bowling Green Christian Food Pantry will provide groceries for the food bag distribution. The toiletries pantry will be made possible by First Presbyterian Church and First Christian Church, both of Bowling Green. Participants will also be offered a variety of breads and pastries provided by the BG Christian Food Pantry. Volunteers from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints of Bowling Green will provide event help, including the distribution of the meals, food bags, and breads and pastries.

Since November 2020, the community meal has been a part of FCC’s food ministry to reduce food insecurity in the community. For more information, contact FCC by calling 419-354-3989 or by emailing firstoffice875@gmail.com. Details can also be found on the FCC Facebook page.
