Fundraising for Food Pantry
"With our nation in constant turmoil, serious financial distress, and in a state of moral decay, this day of prayer has never been needed more. Prayers will be lifted up for our Government, our military, natural and man-made disasters, our teachers, our clergy, and those in the police, fire fighting, EMS fields," organizers said.
The money from food sales goes to the Calhoun Food Pantry, housed at the First Baptist Church.
