The current economic situation is creating opportunities for some people to fulfill a need. Brenda Braden, of Bethel, says that the Lord kept speaking to her heart to feed his people.

“There are so many people right now who are unemployed it was keeping awake at night thinking about it and God just kept telling me to feed His people,” she said. “I argued with God, because I am more of a behind-the-scenes person, but I finally told Him that I’d try.”

Braden, a member of Bethel United Methodist Church, said the first thing she did was create a plan of action and present it to Pastor Bill Bowdle.
