You will notice we use a new name for our
food ministry, but you can expect food and
service as good as or better than before.
We will be getting our shipments from a
source closer to home. Instead of being
shipped from Georgia, our foods will be
coming from Affiliated Foods in Amarillo.
Specials will now be available at or below
the price we have been paying, and there
will be no limits on the number of specials
we can order. There is one temporary
hitch which we hope to be able to
overcome quickly. Until new connections
can be made, we will be unable to process
Lone Star Cards for food orders. We hope
this can be solved before our deadline
Friday, March 16th, but it may take a bit
longer to get ready for this service. With
God as our guide and your wonderful
support, we pray our ministry will grow.
