Hunger Ministry
Focused on reducing food insecurity in Kansas City
The Resurrection Hunger Ministry is an umbrella ministry with three distinct areas of focus to best serve those that are food insecure in Kansas City:
- Partner Pantry Program
- Resurrection Overland Park Food Pantry
- Resurrection FoodMobile
Partner Pantry Program
Our Hunger Ministry team works to provide supplemental funding to partner pantries throughout the KC area. Our support allows pantries to purchase meat, dairy, and fresh produce for their clients in need. All of this is made possible through donations from within the church, special food drives, and monetary donations. With your help, we are bridging the meal gap for more than 430,000 people in our region.
