  In July of 2010, Pastor Oliver Duvernay and the Central Missionary Baptist Church Choir from the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans will be bringing his choir to sing with the music staff of Walnut Ridge.  What a wonderful week-end of worship that will be!

The Harvest is part of the Food Rescue Network (foodrescue.net).  Regular pick-ups of leftover food from Little Caesar's Pizza Restaurants and Panera Restaurants are made by volunteers and delivered to The Harvest.  After bagging, the food is frozen for future distribution.  The number of pizzas that are picked up have exploded in the last few months.  So many pizzas are acquired that they are being also given to the Rush County Food Pantry in Rushville.  Contact The Harvest if you would like to participate.

Ways you can help in the Lower Ninth Ward:

  •    Pray
  •    Send $$$  or gift cards for Wal-Mart, Home Depot or Lowe's.   Many homeless people are living under "the big bridge" on the edge of the lower ninth ward.  Judy and Charles go to this area and hand out sandwiches, bottled water, and a bag of chips.  Wal-Mart gift cards would help pay for the food for this outreach.
  •   Go!!!
