Mustard Seed Ministries at Light on the Hill is about neighbors helping neighbors. At Light on the Hill, we pray that loving others and sharing Jesus and the hope that He brings to life, would be such a natural part of who we are and how we live that we don’t call it ‘outreach’ or ‘mission’ but simply ‘living’ in community. We desire to have long-term relationships with our neighbors so that we can truly call each other ‘friend.’ •      Since 2020, Mustard Seed Food Pantry at Light on the Hill has shared more than 1,814,154 pounds of food with 21,900 families equaling 61,122 individuals in our community in need of food. •      Mustard Seed Ministries operates with hundreds of unpaid servants. We could not do what we do without the passion and faithfulness of our volunteers. •      We listen to our neighbors and strive to match resources with needs. Listening to individuals’ stories is the most important thing we do and we are intentional in developing relationships with those we serve by meeting them where they are. •      It is important to us to give voice to our neighbors and to remove as many barriers as possible to acquiring healthy food as well as other services. It is key to developing relationships to learn their perspective on their concerns and recognize the uniqueness and value of their voice. •      Local agencies and advocates meet regularly to share information and network so we can be more effective in our efforts to help our neighbors. Together, we are better!   Learn more about what we do at Light on the Hill at Mount Wesley in Kerrville, Texas by visiting our website at lightonthehillkerrville.org   Feel free to contact Outreach Director, Beth Palmer at beth.palmer@kfumc.org to ask questions or learn more about how you can get involved with any of our food relief ministries!
