Big Shout out to Wylie’s Girl Soccer Team! Their motto today was “TRIUMPH OVER HUNGER”
They nailed it at Amazing Grace Food Pantry! With their energy, smiles and servant hearts, 765 people won’t go to bed hungry this week. Each family received over 100 pounds of food, including lots of frozen meats of their choice, fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, avocados, bread, eggs and desserts. It’s so heartwarming to see these young ladies excited about Fighting Hunger Together!

Meet Julianna. She is a single mother of 4 and receives no child support. The Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County referred her to Amazing Grace Food Pantry for assistance.
I’m so thankful for Amazing Grace Food Pantry! Without this help, my children would go hungry. We enjoy the variety of food items, fresh produce and special treats that are available. Because of the pantry’s help, my kids don’t know we are food-insecure. We have food on the table now. Thank you Amazing Grace and all who support this
