Making a difference
One of our sustaining families has done a wonderful thing! They purchased a beef share for a local food bank. This is a great way to get great food to the people that need it the most. USDA inspected and graded source verified grass fed and finished beef is helping needy families! We have been helping military families for a while now but this is the first time our beef has been used as a gift to do "Gods Work". I was so touched when Joe came to pick up the beef and told me that it would be helping nearly 100 local families, amazing! To know that our cattle are helping feed the local community through the generosity of our members shows just what community is supposed to be! http://www.mmlivestockco.com

You should be happy and proud. I am a non-believer, but I would say that what you and others are doing is the closest thing to "God's work" there is. In my opinion, there is no better way to serve than putting food in peoples' mouths, especially good and nutritious food. What is so often lost in the hunger debate is that the choices needy and low-income people are faced with in their neighborhoods, in their grocery stores, are not particularly healthy. Allowing people a choice in the matter is wonderful, and I hope to see more of it. Excellent work.
