Our Mission
Following the example of Jesus when feeding the crowd with just 5 loaves and 2 fish, this ministry’s goal is to feed the hungry of the Brookings area through a weekly grocery distribution.
How Does Feeding Brookings Work?
From 4:00-5:00pm each Thursday afternoon at Ascension Lutheran Church in Brookings, SD, volunteers distribute produce and bakery items provided by our local Wal-Mart and Hy-Vee stores, canned goods from The Emergency Food Assistance Program, hygiene items, and a food item of the month. There is no need for guests to arrive early; random numbers for order of entry are drawn on the day of distribution at 3:50pm.
Who is Served?
All in need are welcome. Each household will be required to complete a form to ensure income is within required guidelines.
If you are in need, or are able to help our neighbors in need, spread the word!
