Bethany Christian Church is excited to host an IDES GAP Event on Saturday, July 27th at 10a in the BCCAnderson Gym. GAP (God Always Provides) is an opportunity for people of ALL ages to serve together packing nutritious meals for those who are suffering from hunger and malnutrition around the world.
IDES representatives will come to the BCCAnderson Gym prepared with all the ingredients for this meal packing event. Our goal on the 27th is to pack 30,000 GAP meals! Because the IDES teams lead these events year-round, they tell us that if we can provide at least 100 able-bodied, willing volunteers, we can pack this amount of meals in about 3 hours!
IMPORTANT NOTE TO FAMILIES OF CHILDREN 4TH GRADE & YOUNGER:
While children are more than invited to join the event and fully participate in packing the GAP meals, children 4th grade and younger will require a parent/guardian to supervise them, one-on-one, the entire time. There will be a checkbox in the signup process to ensure that children of this age are adequately supervised as they can take part in this vital and life-changing work.
If you cannot volunteer your time for this GAP event, but would still like to help, you can give financially to support IDES and its GAP program. IDES is able to provide four (4) meals for every dollar ($1) given — that means 1 meal can be provided for 25¢! Our goal for this GAP event is to raise at least $1200. To give online, simply follow this link to bccanderson.org/give, select “Missions” and then include “GAP” in the memo/note section.
