Valley Community Center Food Kitchen

A couple of times a year the Valley Community Center  has a paper product and cleaning supply drive. We want to thank every church and the people that help with this. It really does help stretch our budget and we are very grateful.

We want to thank the folks at Open Door Family Church in Bolckow for putting in a much needed new faucet. Wow! It’s very fancy. The other groups serving will love using it.

Open Door serves the last Friday of every month. They make some awesome meals and are very generous sending food home with the people. 

Thank you again Open Door! We appreciate all you do for the Food Kitchen Ministry here in South Side St Joseph! ❤️

We had a “Ladies Only” Valentine Party at the Valley Community Center on Valentine’s Day.

We were so blessed to give these women a fun-filled day. They laughed with joy and cried with thankfulness, as we lavished on them multiple gifts, games, prizes, good food and homemade treats!

Cindy Prindle shared the gospel and God‘s love for them. ❤️

Some of these ladies are struggling with homelessness, sleeping in their cars and places with no heat or lights.

 We’re going to do a follow up luncheon the frist Saturday in April with resources and bring in people who can help them with the various needs they have. 

We are preparing and looking forward to this next event. Please keep it and these women in your prayers. 🙏

Haven’t posted much on Facebook lately, but we are here busy serving those in need. Thanks to all the wonderful churches and people God sends to the south side of St Joseph, Missouri. 

We served Christmas Day and had a large number of people come. It was a blessing to  share Christmas with them! 

Right now it is heartbreaking, and honestly hard to sleep at night seeing all the people that are living in extremely hard conditions in this cold weather. In their cars, in tents and sheds, and places that have no utilities.

I am thankful that we are here to serve and help them with the various needs they have, to hopefully make their lives a little better.

Thank you all who so faithfully come and keep serving, and to all of you who give! You are all amazing! Looking forward to serving alongside of you another year in 2026! ❤️

This was a project that so many people were involved in, and we were the recipients of their care and generosity.

 A couple of weeks ago, these beautiful people brought boxes and boxes of hygiene products collected at several places.

They put in a hygiene station at the front of our building at the entrance where people come in. This is where people can find hygiene products that they’re in need of. 

We are deeply grateful to every single person that was involved in this act of kindness. The last picture on this post is a list of people, businesses and companies who were involved in blessing so many  in our community that have need of these items.

 If the list isn’t complete, please add in the comments those that need credit for this. We are deeply grateful to everyone.

Merry Christmas and a Happy & Blessed New Year to all!!! 🌲❤️🌲
