Hunger Offering

See how a recipient of the Texas Baptist Hunger Offering is helping those in need in West Fort Worth.

"I was looking for a way to be a light for Christ on Twitch."

Though the world may have seemed to have shut down, the Gospel never stopped.

See how one church is using the Hunger Offering to expand their food pantry.

"...we were facing a crisis within a crisis: hunger."

"I want to see in every village, a church."

Have you ever lived in a city that has given a boil-water notice? Have you ever noticed that the taste of your tap water has changed? You might think it's odd to notice the taste of water or that there would be a boil-water notice in the United States. But during July of 2020, the city of Laredo, TX had to advise citizens living along highway 359 to boil their water due to low chlorine levels.

As Christians, we have a duty to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8).

God’s purpose and work continue to move through the hearts and hands of His people.

“Mommy, you did it.”

A woman who had been struggling to get her GED heard these words at graduation coming from her daughter. Now, she is taking college classes and will occasionally visit the ministry that helped her get there – Mineral Wells Center of Life.

Mineral Wells Center of Life, a Texas Baptist Hunger Offering partner ministry, began in 2011 to reach its community. Since opening, the ministry has been able to offer a variety of services from GED (high school equivalency) classes to food distribution to job training programs and more.

Executive Director Cindy Maness said the center’s ministries have recently expanded.

“You never know what the need is going to be,” Maness said.
