Gospel Tabernacle Church of Christ in God and Sonlight Outreach Center beat the heavy rainstorm to hold its weekly food giveaway on Tuesday at Bloch Park.

The food giveaway was moved up an hour earlier to beat the storm. Countless vehicles, stretched out onto Dallas Avenue and winding through the stadium’s parking lot to receive a box that contained frozen chicken, vegetable, fruits and milk.

Several local residents, including LeMarkus A. Snow of Snow’s Cleaning Service, were among the volunteers that helped residents receive their boxes and safely leave Bloch Park.

Gospel Tabernacle Pastor John E. Grayson, said its all about helping residents safely recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.
