Free Breakfast at Church feeds bodies and souls

Sandmeier UMC in the Philippines conducts a monthly feeding program, which began during the COVID-19 pandemic. The congregation nourishes the bodies and souls of its community by distributing free food and clothing, as well as encouraging spiritual growth.

The church plans to expand the ministry to other sites in order to reach more people who need support, hope and God’s love.
