Southwest Baptist University, in partnership with Convoy of Hope, will host a free
grocery distribution on its Bolivar campus on Saturday, August 22, from 9:00 a.m.
- 12:00 p.m. (or while supplies last).
This event will be a drive through distribution to ensure everyone's safety and convenience.
Community members can drive up to the designated areas (noted on map), and SBU faculty,
staff and student volunteers will assist them in loading groceries without having
to leave their vehicles.
Each vehicle will receive two bags of groceries per adult in the vehicle; grocery
bags will be filled with snacks/beverages and cleaning products to help support and
nourish families and individuals. The aim of this event is to come together as a community
by lending a helping hand.
SBU will also have a prayer tent available to lend support, comfort, and offer prayer for those who are interested.
"I love seeing servant-leadership cultivated on campus, right from the first week!
Convoy of Hope sets the tone of servanthood for the semester. It's a blessing to realize
afresh that even Jesus didn't come to be served, but to serve, and give his life as a ransom for all who turn and trust in Him," said Taylor Wehrle,
Director of Campus Experience at SBU
