Kids Against Hunger Comes To Dexter
Dexter, Missouri - Jerry and Marilyn Lantz will be bringing the world mission project, Kids Against Hunger, for the people of Haiti, to First Baptist Church Dexter MO on April 11, 2015 at 9am. This event is open to all church members of FBC and the surrounding churches of Southeast Missouri.

Donations are now being accepted in the office of FBC Dexter MO.  All checks are to be made out to First Baptist Church, with Kids Against Hunger in the memo.

Sign ups will be held two weeks in advance of the packing date to determine the amount of equipment needed for this year’s event.

This world mission starts at 9am and is a food packing event that includes all food, equipment, and instruction on how to pack the meals. This is an assembly line type of packing which includes plenty of jobs which can be performed seated.

The work is easy and fun for the whole family! You have to see this to believe it. The goal for this year is 30,000 meals.

The cost is .28 cents per meal. This includes all the food, packaging supplies, shipping, and delivery of the meals. The time required to pack this many meals is only 3 hours!

We look this year to feed more families in Haiti and invite the surrounding communities to come and participate in a truly great world mission.
