Help Us Serve the Community This Month

On the first Saturday of each month, the front parking lot of the Decatur ISD Administration Building is transformed into giant produce store. An 18-wheeler full of fresh produce from the Tarrant Area Food Bank delivers pallets full of fresh carrots, beets, spinach, oranges, apples, berries, potatoes, cucumbers, squash, peppers, baby food, eggs, milk, and more. In just a few hours, over 150 families from across Wise County make their way through the produce lines to pick out food to help feed their family that month.

Members of FUMC Decatur helping with the last mobile food pantry.

This effort, supported at no-cost by the Tarrant Area Food Bank, simply requires a team of 40-50
volunteers from the community each month. We unload pallets of food, organize the produce tables, help families through the lines and out to their cars, and serve as the hands and feet of Jesus with other members of the Decatur community.

Join us again this month, October 7, 2017, as we gather again to serve!
When: Saturday, Oct. 7, 8-11am
Where: Decatur ISD Administration Building

If you would like to serve, please sign-up to be part of the October Team at the table located in the 2nd floor-hallway.
