Helping Hands Ministry, Grace Church of Southern Pines, and Beaver Creek Baptist Church completed a joint effort to open two new additional food banks in West Virginia.  The team traveled to Rhodell, Welch and Bradshaw, WV and built shelves and filled them with food.  The food will be handed out monthly by Pastor Dean Crane.  Dean travels from near North Wilkesboro in NC to West Virginia every weekend to take care of the needs of the people in these communities. Dean has four churches in four different areas and drives about one thousand miles per week.  Helping Hands is also supporting by suppling clothing, shoes and medical supplies. Most of the people in these areas are out of work and have some great needs.
