@make_that_mama: 📣 Hey friends — you’ve probably seen the headlines: the current mess surrounding Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)/EBT benefits is real. Tens of millions could lose grocery access as the federal government grinds to a halt. As Christians, this is our moment to shine 👇 ✝️ We look to Jesus Christ — He didn’t wait on a government to care for the hungry, the hurting, the marginalized. He moved, served, healed, gave. ✝️ When systems wobble, when benefits falter, we remember: our hope is in Him, our calling is to serve. ✝️ Let’s not depend only on policy or bureaucracy—but let’s step in, hands and feet of Christ, to lift up our neighbor. Here are a few practical ways we can respond: 🙏 Gather groceries or diapers for a family you know who is feeling the pinch because their EBT/benefit access is delayed or uncertain. 🏠 Open your home or schedule a time when others in your church/community can drop by snacks, meals, fresh produce or even help pay a small utility or rent bill. 🤝 Lead a “church food-walk” or “neighbor meal train”: pick up extra items next time you buy groceries and deliver them to someone in need. 📢 Ask your church to make it a prayer focus: for families affected, for local food banks, for our government leaders to act with compassion. We don’t wait for the perfect system. We are the hands and feet of Jesus now. When the government wavers, the church must stand steady. 💪 When families worry about grocery shelves or cards not working, we walk in and say: “We see you. God loves you. We’re here.” 🌾❤️ It could be you… it could be me.

I grew up on it and for years as an adult who worked every single day as a vet assistant. People need to learn how to store food for hard times. Learn to can. I'm canning chicken broth and freeze the meat today on unwanted rooster(50😅) all free. Today we all are spoiled on junk foods.

Your grandma was fortunate to have you. Unfortunately, so many families are struggling many can’t help extended family. I feel bad for the oldest and youngest among us. The elderly often won’t ask for help and the youngest didn’t ask for their circumstances. 😔

I couldn't care less what people buy with their SNAP and it's not on me to determine who is abusing the system. It is absolutely necessary for so many people to survive.

Kids will go hungry, though. They are not only cutting snap (food stamps) but also WIC. When I was a young, single mother in 1998, a can of powdered formula was around $20 - I don’t know how much they are now, but I wouldn’t have been able to afford it without that program. Our taxes should be used to help people going through hard times, not tax breaks for billionaires.

I don’t care if 10 people abuse it, as long as it feeds five deserving families!

Check out @Dan | Appalachian Travelers page. He’s giving some resources for people in need. Also the girl who does the dollar store meals has come up with a great meal in a bag idea. I’m gonna try to put some of those together. Our church of course supports the local food bank and helps many people in need. I would hope if we are ever faced with the choice of buying food or our medication someone would help.
