For many years, we have taken a Sunday each month to collect food for Mustard Seed which in turn feeds those in need. We choose the first Sunday of each month. We have taken on the responsibility to help fill their shelves with food, personal care items, and even pet supplies. Shopping bags are available in the Gathering Space for you to take, fill, and return to Messiah on that Sunday.​
This month's the most needed items are: Cereal, Toilet Paper, Crackers, Cream Corn,
Spinach, Carrots, and Sauerkraut.
WHAT IS MUSTARD SEED?
Mustard Seed is an ecumenical ministry of the churches in Point Place/Shoreland neighborhoods of Toledo, Ohio. Churches, businesses, and community members provide support to Mustard Seed, so that Mustard Seed can provide food, clothing, and other needs to people in need in our neighborhoods. Mustard Seed is a Toledo Feed Your Neighbor site. Mustard Seed also helps gather names for Thanksgiving baskets, Christmas gifts, and Easter candy to help families make memories on those special holidays. ​
