Angel Food returns to Webster
Published: November 7, 2007
Angel Food Ministries is a non-profit program brought to Webster Parish by Webster Parish Police Jury Office of Community Services, located at 208 Gleason St. in Minden and South Main Mall in Springhill.
For $25 (plus tax when using cash or money orders) anyone can purchase approximately $60 to $70 worth of groceries each month to be shipped directly from the manufacturers to Webster Parish on refrigerated trucks for distribution. There are no applications, no financial qualifications and no limits on quantities purchased.
This is not government subsidized food. The food is purchased on the open market in huge quantities, Webster Parish Community Services provides the facilities and much of the labor, and the savings are passed on to the consumer.
Orders for the November distribution began at 8:30 a.m., Monday, October 22 at the Minden and Springhill offices. Distribution will not be until the last week of November.
Participants must have their receipt with them on distribution day to pick up their food and they should also bring a large box to exchange for each regular unit ordered. Food that is not picked up by the specified time stated on the receipt will be given to families in need and cannot be refunded. Food stamps (EBT), cash, money orders and cashiers checks will be accepted. No credit cards of personal checks will be accepted.
The November 2007 menu is as follows: Four pounds individually quick frozen leg quarters; 26-ounce Banquet turkey entrée; four 8-ounce 80/20 lean beef patties; one-pound IQF chicken breast; one-pound Gourmet sausage; one-pound corn dogs; one-pound ground turkey; 12-ounce Philly steaks; 6.5-ounce stroganoff dinner; one-pound pinto beans; one-pound rice; one-pound California veggie blend; two-pounds fresh onions; 20-ounce shoe string potatoes; seven-ounce blueberry muffin mix; and one dessert item.
