Angel Food Ministry
Christian Challenge is excited to be a part of the Angel Food Ministries network. AFM began in 1994 as a small outreach ministry serving a rural community in Georgia. The goal was to help neighbors who needed a hand up in a tough economic time. Today, AFM can be found in over 3,200 communities in 34 states and helps feed over 500,000 families a month. To better understand the ministry of AFM, see their promotional video on their website.
AFM partners with churches and community organizations throughout the country to help distribute food to those in need. For $30.00* you can receive a box of food containing both fresh and frozen items. The food items are top quality – AFM buys food from major food producers throughout the country to ensure the best food comes to your table.
Here's how it works: Each month you place your order by the order deadline. Then, on distribution Saturday, you bring a large box to Christian Challenge during the distribution time to pick up your items. Below is a calendar for 2008 of the order deadlines and the distribution Saturdays:
