  • Nov. 2022 Pork Distribution  We were excited  to continue our mission of feeding hungry people. As most of you know we are no longer sending out whole kernel corn, but we have for a second time deliver over 500 pounds of ground pork to this time 4 food pantries in Lawrence County. The need for food is raising while the availability of food for local food pantries is falling. Through donations coming to BHRP we were able to buy 5 hogs from a local farmer and have it processed and pack into one pound packages. We are so happy to continue doing something in the name of Jesus.
  • Sept. 2022  Pork Distribution Monday, September 12, 2022 marked a new milestone in the transition of BHRP. Through the faithful donations from many people and churches we were able to enter into a new mission field. That mission field is Lawrence County, Indiana.
  • A surprise to no one, whole kernel dry corn is not very usable to most people in the USA. We are not used to grinding our own cornmeal. However, those same people are very adept at using ground pork.
    Monday, a total of 643 one-pound packages of ground pork were delivered to three different food pantries in Lawrence County. Based on 2022 averages, these three outlets provide food to 700 families each month. These families are made up of approximately 2,400 individuals. Distribution of the pork from each site began this week.
    Over the years God has been faithful to BHRP. This new endeavor is just another way BHRP can be the hands and feet of Jesus by providing much needed food.
    Please pray for BHRP as we continue to follow Jesus’ words from Matthew 25:
    ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
    “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
