Featured Public Ministry

This article, written by Rev. Dorothy S. Boulware for Word In Black, discusses how faith communities consistently step up to the call to support their neighbors in times of need. The author provides data that illustrates that Black Americans are disproportionately impacted by food insecurity already, and that a loss of access to government food programs can lead to significant demand of food ministries offered by local congregations. Several examples of food security ministries, and their community impact, are shared in this article.
