HANNIBAL â Harvest Outreach Ministries took a huge step toward turning a dream into reality on Tuesday, July 13.
The nonprofit organization purchased property on Lyon Street in Hannibal, and has begun making plans to build a permanent home for the Loaves and Fishes Program. The facility will house a commercial kitchen/dining room, food pantry and meeting spaces, which can be utilized by community and private groups.
Since Loaves and Fishes began in the 1990s, the ministry has partnered with several local churches to borrow their facilities in order to serve the Monday-Friday evening meals for the community.
For years, First United Methodist Church allowed the use of their basement for the program. When the COVID-19 pandemic occurred in 2020, the Loaves and Fishes ministry organizers re-evaluated how and where they were going to distribute meals. The safety of the people receiving meals and of the volunteers preparing the meals became the top priority.
