A Ministry to the Homeless & Needy
Tucson, Arizona
Hope of Glory Ministries is dedicated to helping the homeless and needy people of Tucson and Pima County, Arizona. Our first call is to exhibit the love of Christ by our attitude and service, and then to see that Christ is formed in them through presenting the Gospel. We intend to provide an inner-city shelter facility with on-site services, The Hope Center, for the housing, teaching, and restoring of Tucson’s most precious resource–its men, women and children. 
SAVE THE DATE: Hope for the Homeless Banquet II, November 20th, We still need committee chairmen!
Please consider this need!
We have been providing meals to the homeless and needy for 13 years. In doing this we have acquired several sources of FREE food and developed the means to pick it up, store it and deliver/serve it. The Community Food Bank is our primary source (although pick'ins are often slim here) but Starbucks, Pizza Hut and other community networking sources compliment needs for our 3-times weekly noon meals (we currently serve about 80 plates each meal). We also have a grant from FEMA for non-perishable food for our pantry take-home bags.
Since our donations are down we now find it necessary to cut some of our services, but we don't feel we should cut out this important service to our community (seeing that we have plenty of food to share). We are asking you to help us out by providing a few of the items we need to serve the meals and fill the pantry bags with some needed non-food items as well.
We will be providing you with convenient DROP OFF SITES for whatever you can contribute in another e-mail. If all of our contacts donated just one item, we would be fine for the entire month!
