JustServe Spotlight

by Cindy Dahl, Akron Stake Just Serve Specialist

Every month we will be spotlighting a JustServe opportunity in various areas of our stake. This month is Matthew 25 Outreach Center (www.m25oc.org). In the Wooster and Ashland ward boundaries, we have an excellent opportunity to serve at Matthew 25 Outreach Center. 

Every first Saturday in Mansfield, third Saturday in Wooster, and fourth Saturday in Ashland, they have a free produce distribution. Volunteer work starts at 7:30 a.m. by organizing food boxes for a drive-though delivery for those in need.  Usually, the distribution is over by noon, but volunteers can leave when they need to.

 Our missionaries from Wooster, Ashland, and Mansfield have served at each of these food distributions for several months. I have received glowing reviews from the Matthew 25 leadership about their willingness to help. If you are looking for a place to put in a couple of hours of service, this would be a great place to start.

You can find more information about this opportunity and others at www.justserve.org.
