His Table Volunteers Raising Money For New Equipment

LIVE BANDS, DELICIOUS BARBECUE PART OF THE DAY’S EVENTS

His Table volunteers are gearing up for a special fundraiser aimed at raising money for a new smoker.

The volunteers go anywhere they are called. They help people in crisis situations, give a free, delicious meal and spread the Gospel.

Volunteers have found a quality smoker, manufactured in Arkansas, which costs $5,000. Volunteers are asking anyone interested in investing in the ministry to consider making a donation. A community fundraiser, featuring good food and live bands, will take place from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28, at the Goodman ball park. Donations will be accepted.

Several live bands – one from as far away as Rolla – will be on hand to provide music. Bred 4 War, Crossroads Band, Joe Sowersby, Justin Brock Band and Tetelestai will perform.

Dinner will be served at 5 p.m. The event will conclude around 8.

Raffle tickets will be sold for several large items, including a barbecue grill, weed trimmer, leaf blower and a Ruger American .308 Winchester rifle.

Josh Wagner and Jerod Lewis are two local volunteers who have teamed up with local churches to feed people in Kansas City, New Orleans, Joplin and

Springfield, among other places. The team has fed law enforcement members and veterans at the state capital in Jefferson City, and recently fed hundreds of people at the Ozark Orchard Festival in Goodman.

Volunteers find places to live out their mission in various ways. Sometimes, volunteers respond to disaster areas.

Sometimes, it’s finding an impoverished neighborhood.

His Table volunteers also serve their local communities and provide food for events in Neosho, Pineville and Goodman.

Organizers believe that “Shine the Light” will be a great day to visit, share food and help a good cause.

“Bring lawn chairs, bring your friends and family, come enjoy a day of family friendly fellowship,” said Wagner, one of the event organizers.

“We’ll have great music for just about everyone’s likening and bounce houses and games for the little ones,” he said.

“We would love to have our area’s youth groups and pastors join us for a great day of fellowship.”
