Ottumwa, Iowa – March 9, 2010. The Bethel United Pentecostal Church in Ottumwa works hard helping those in need.
One service they provide is the Angel Food Ministries.
They became a host site for the national program two years ago.
Angel Food Ministries offers packages of food at discounted prices that can feed a family of four for a week.
The main package costs $30 and contains roughly $65 worth of food and additional deals are available.
Pastor W. Jay Allison says they know times are hard and this is just one program they offer.
“We had a lady in the church find it, she stumbled upon it and there was nobody in the area doing it. So we thought it would be a good outreach to our community as far as being able to help them,” said Allison
Allison said the Church opened a food pantry providing further assistance. The food pantry provides food free of charge.
Allison said food stamps are accepted with the Angel Food Ministry.
