Come and help us pack 600-800 Hopetotes for upcoming Code Red Food Distribution events. Each tote packed will contain nonperishable food items and supplies to compliment fresh food items we receive and distribute from one of our resource partners, Blessings of Hope in Lancaster County, PA. This event is family friendly but, children will need to be supervised by a parent or caregiver.

LEADER Melissa Slocum DESCRIPTION

Join us as we take love on the road! We’re gathering at The Journey and hopping in the shuttle to head to Wilmington for a powerful Lunch With Love Pop-Up Outreach. We’ll be making stops at several key locations—Rodney Square, Christina Park, near the Sunday Breakfast Mission, and more—to hand out prepared lunch bags, offer smiles, and connect with our neighbors who need encouragement and care. What to Expect: • Distributing lunch bags with sandwiches, snacks, and encouraging notes • Engaging with the community through kindness and conversation • A chance to serve outside the four walls and bring hope where it’s needed most *12 seats available on the shuttle; we were unable to secure 2 shuttles for this event but you are welcome and encouraged to carpool in small groups and follow along side us or head out on mission to your desired locations.
