Feed My Starving Children Packing Event 2009Want to feed the world? Open a quart-sized plastic bag. Add a scoop of vitamin-fortified, chicken-flavored powder. Add dehydrated vegetables, a scoop of soy nuggets, and one of uncooked white rice. Seal the bag and send it overseas. You have just provided a balanced meal for a family of six or half a dozen schoolchildren in a poor country.

From April 1 to April 3, Hidden Valley’s auditorium rocked with activity as a hundred volunteers at a time packed hundreds of meals a minute. The food, purchased by local donations, was provided, along with equipment and professional supervision, by a mobile packing unit of Feed My Starving Children (FMSC), a Minnesota-based Christian relief ministry.
