Thank you: Church Mouse from St. Stephen’s

The St. Stephen’s United Methodist Church Outreach Food Bank in Ridgeland would like to thank the Church Mouse Board of Directors for their continued support in selecting us as a recipient for this year’s grant award.

St. Stephen’s relies solely on donations to feed more than 1,600 individuals monthly. Without the kindness and generosity of organizations like the Church Mouse, we couldn’t support those individuals who need us most. Many of our recipients are very young, senior citizens and handicapped individuals needing a helping hand. We are proud to be able to provide them with food for their table, clothing, personal items, and even furniture and household goods. Thank you for all you do to enrich the lives of our local poor residents.
