Each May, Rosedale Baptist Church participates in the Austin Baptist Community Center’s ministry through their spring food drive. The Austin Baptist Community Center serves hundreds of area families each year. They meet physical needs through food and clothing ministries and help with medication, paperwork, and a variety of other services they meet educational and childcare needs through after-school ministries and they meet spiritual needs through Bible study, witness, and daily demonstration of Christ’s mercy and love.
Each year, the Lord uses the ABCC to bring dozens of folks to a saving relationship with Him and He uses us to help supply their ministries with the support that they need. The Community Center’s largest ministry is their food pantry and this is the time of year where food supplies run the thinnest.
Throughout the month of May, Rosedale Baptist Church will have bins in the educational building for the collection of in-date, non-perishable food items to restock the Baptist Community Center’s pantry. Pray about how you and your family can support the Community Center in their ministry to the needy in Austin—and remember that their ministry is our ministry…and, most importantly, it’s the Lord’s ministry.
