We wrestled with&#8230;<!--more--> deep questions like \u201cWhat are you hungry for?\u201d and also Jesus\u2019 call to us that \u201cyou give them something to eat.\u201d The good news is that we here at BVUMC do offer sustenance to those who are hungry, both literally and figuratively.<\/p>\n<p>One way we do that is through our Bread &amp; Jam meal program. You are all (I hope!) aware of this program but you may not be aware of the fact we receive much of our funding and food supplies from an organization called Feeding America. This fall they will be sponsoring just one of several opportunities for us to support organizations, both locally and world-wide, in feeding those in need. I\u2019d love for us to put a team of walkers in the street for each of these events. Keep your eyes on The Cube for more information but here\u2019s what\u2019s coming up:<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, September 15th \u2013 6th Annual Food Walk benefiting our local Bay View Community Center Food Pantry \u2013 begins at 10:00 a.m. at the BVCC (1320 E.
