CCA




Christian Community Action is the food bank in Lincoln Parish.  It was founded in 1988 by area churches. It is staffed by 41 volunteers. Last year, CCA helped 2,300 families by supplying 93,000 pounds of food and10,000 clothing items, as well as $17,000 in utility bills. They also help with medical prescription costs, and supply box fans and school supplies. 






       


  Last night CCA held their fall fundraiser, "Soup for the Soul". The community really turned out to show their support with ticket sales, canned good donations, and silent auction bids. 

 
  

 
It was a heart-warming evening of community unity - a community that truly cares for those in need!!
 
If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue, but with actions and in truth.
1 John 3: 17-18
 
Love ya'll, Shelli
