We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

Village Harvest, April 16, 2015

Tax day didn’t put a damper on the Village Harvest, our fifth month in operation.

Some stats.

1. We had 77 people to serve , one more than last month.  

2. Pounds of produce 500 (sweet potatoes, baking potatoes, and kale), less than last month but we added crackers, peanut butter, ham and eggs for each family.  

Comments from those who received

1. "This is a real blessing. Thank you for doing this, it really helps us out."   

2.  "Having this food means that I can buy something else I really need." 

Comments from those working to make this distribution possible 

1. "Doing this work is a privilege"   

2. "I see this food distribution as a way to bring our community closer together."

Thanks to all involved, who served and received
