Hands of Hope

Hands of Hope Hands of Hope is an outreach ministry of La Grange Church of Christ which seeks to help feed children in need.

Hands of Hope is an outreach ministry of the La Grange Church of Christ with the purpose of encouraging one another to follow God's command for us to serve others with love. 1 Peter 4:10 (NIV) states "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." We want to use the hands God gave us to spread His message of hope.

The purpose of the first project taken on by the Hands of Hope ministry is to help God's most vulnerable souls; children. The ministry will help meet the needs of children who are in danger of hunger, as identified by La Grange ISD. These children are provided with meals during the school week through the school-associated free or reduced lunch program. Hands of Hope strives to bridge the hunger gap these children face while away from school. Each Friday, identified students are given a food pack containing 7 meals and 2 snacks; enough food for the weekend. By helping meet this physical need, we pray each child is filled with a measure of hope.

Hello! Hands of Hope needs YOUR help!
At this time, 49 La Grange ISD children are receiving bags of food every Friday from Hands of Hope. The food bags are given directly to the children while at school so that they know they have food to eat over the weekend. Each bag costs approximately $4.50. All donated funds are used to purchase food. With your help, we can continue to feed these children! Refer to the image below for ways to donate. Please consider donating and sharing this info with more people and businesses in our community. Thank you!

We are in need of more canned vegetables (corn, green beans, or peas) for the final three weeks of school. You can drop them off at La Grange Church of Christ. Thank you to everyone who has already donated.

Thank you to the person who ordered a case of peas from Walmart and had them delivered. We’ve had several donations of vegetables. We were able to provide vegetables in all of our bags last week. We’re getting close to being able to do it again this week. Thank you to everyone who is helping us feed kids in La Grange.

Kids need their vegetables! Recently, we have had difficulty purchasing vegetables from Sam's for our Hands of Hope bags. We're handing out 93 bags each week. If you could pick up a couple of extra cans of vegetables the next time you are at the grocery store and drop them off at La Grange Church of Christ, then you could help us make sure our Hands of Hope kids get their vegetables. We are in need of cans of corn, green beans, or sweet peas. Thanks for helping us feed kids in La Grange!
