Here are just a handful of the ways you can serve neighbors in need through your support of Brown Bag Ministry.

We welcome and appreciate your spiritual support, in whatever way that takes shape by your traditions. The global prayer for hunger relief at right, authored in 2008 by members of the Ecumenical Women at the United Nations, provides a valuable bearing for the work undertaken by all volunteers fighting hunger worldwide.
