The pictures above are from various Florida Baptist Churches conducting food distributions across the state. The report on food ministries below has been submitted by those churches receiving hunger funds. Florida Baptist Churches have distributed food throughout their communities while sharing Christ and praying with ones impacted by the pandemic and other crisis. Many more churches are taking advantage of hunger funds available through the Florida Baptist Convention. This became a catalyst for many churches to begin ongoing food ministries to their communities that had not been reached before. Florida Baptists had a great opportunity to reach their communities like never before through the food distributions of 2020. The pandemic brought new challenges and an increased need for food due to loss of jobs and food availability. For many years, Florida Baptist Churches have served their communities by providing food for the needy.
