Going Without
Paige dedicates each day to loving and caring for her pre-teen daughter, Maddie, and her young son, Chase.
Taking a Chance
Thursdays at the Dallas High Shoals Christian Ministry are bustling with fast-paced energy as devoted volunteers assemble food carts to distribute to approximately 350 families in our community who are in need of support.
Answering the Call
The volunteers at the Dallas High Shoals Christian Ministry found themselves faced with a troubling sight
Not a Burden
No matter what she tried, nothing seemed to work. Mona's marriage had fallen apart. The mortgage was more than she could afford.
Their Steps
Kim is a recent graduate from Ultimate Medical Academy. “I received my Medical Billing and Coding Associates degree,” she shared. She is also a single mother of two children ages six and four. “I just started a wonderful job working from home, but my electric bill was already far behind. I knew, once I got my first check, I could pay my bill off.”
Big Bad Thing
As a husband and father, Darius is the main provider in his family. While his job is
stable, his current pay isn’t keeping up with rising living costs.
Talk About It!
Mr. Jacob lived alone until his health began to decline. Robert, his son moved in with his father to care for him. “My father is proud,” Robert shared. “I didn’t realize he was going without food in the house for days or that he was so behind on his bills. He wouldn’t talk about it.”
Christmas in July 2023
As food and living prices increase across the country, our neighbors here are struggling to get by. We have seen an increase in the number of clients requesting support. To help meet this need, we invite you to join us for "Christmas in July" as we restock our shelves and begin preparing for an expected increase in need during Christmas this year.
Keep Wondering
Dylan and Madison* are the parents of three elementary-aged boys. They both work full-time jobs, but like 64% of Americans, their family lives paycheck to paycheck. When either of them has to miss a day of work due to illness in their family or when an unexpected expense arises like new tires, they occasionally need a little extra help to get by.
Friendship and Hope
On an extremely hot, humid, and busy food distribution day at Dallas-High Shoals Christian Ministry, a young man was walking down the sidewalk past our parking lot. When one of our dedicated and faithful volunteers greeted the young man with a friendly "good morning," she noticed that he was sweaty, exhausted, somewhat downtrodden, and just might be hungry.
