The Huddle: Trust in God
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." — Proverbs 3:5
You don't need to have it all figured out to serve well. Stay present and trust that God is already at work in the room before you get there. He put you on this team for a reason.
🗓️ What’s Happening
We’re partnering with Vineyard Church to host a MobilePack with Feed My Starving Children (FMSC). Fifty volunteers from Abundant Life Church will join the Vineyard Church in lending a hand to package food.
You’ll volunteer in a fun, assembly-line style packing session where teams scoop and seal ingredients into meal bags. Each meal packed goes into boxes and gets shipped overseas to help feed children and families.
Date: Saturday, March 21 | Time: 12:45pm - 3:00pm
Location: Vineyard Church - State Fair site | 312 Lakeside Rd Syracuse, NY 13209
Ample parking is available.

Upon arrival, ALC volunteers check in with Rev. Liz Shatraw
Below are a few guidelines for participating in this event:
Footwear: Closed-toe shoes are required.
Jewelry: No jewelry allowed (no bracelets, earrings, or necklaces). Wedding rings are the only exception.
Gear: You will be provided with and required to wear a hair net and plastic gloves. Beard nets will also be available.
Belongings: Please leave large jackets and backpacks at home or in your car. Only bring essentials (keys, wallet, phone).
Are there physical requirements or limitations? The role is active, but accommodating. If you cannot stand for long periods, chairs are available, and you can assist with seated tasks like placing stickers on bags.
We are so excited to be able to partner with the Vineyard Church and hope to see you there!
