Today I met with a man who came to the CEC for the first time last week.  He said he came last Thursday evening for the food pantry.  He said he observed me stop and talk to a lady about herself, her child and that the lady turned around to someone and said how we treat people like family here.  He then said how he received so much food, more than he expected to get, and was excited because he could make meals out of all he received!  He said the volunteers were extremely helpful as well.  The gentleman had been referred by a coworker who told him she has received help at the CEC.

Through our partnership with World Vision, First Baptist Church of Fort Worth was given the opportunity to support three of our local Title I schools. It was our privilege to bless John D. Spicer Elementary, North Oaks Middle School and Haltom High School with supplies for 300 Teachers/Staff members. The Lord has allowed us to cultivate a relationship with Birdville schools and the CEC. Because of the support from our church family and volunteers, as well as the provisions available from World Vision, the ability to touch the lives of Teachers and Students in our local community is made possible. These seemingly small gestures allow us to share Christ’s love with people and therefore have a greater impact on His Kingdom.
