Reflections, What’s Next and Thank You.
Angel Food Ministries decision to cease operations, proves once again that we are all vulnerable to hardship. Ironically, it is from hardship that AFM first began. In a spirit of love, community and most importantly, Christ, we’ve had the great honor of serving you over the last few years. And, while this may spell the end of Angel Food Ministries nationally, locally we continue to seek opportunities to serve you.
Many have asked us what’s next. Truthfully, we don’t know. But He does know what’s in store. We continue to pray and exercise patience so we can move forward donning the full armor of God to help make our community a better place while ministering to our friends, our neighbors… our family. Watch this website and/or follow us on Facebook for occasional updates as we move forward. Finally, please continue to pray for us and our community.
If you wish to get involved and join our great mission, please join us at St. Andrew on Sunday mornings, beginning at 9 for worship. Together, with the helping hand of Christ, we’ll rise above all to the glory of Christ.
Angel Food Ministries Temporarily Suspends Orders
It’s with great disappointment we must inform you that Angel Food Ministries will not be hosting a September distribution. All online orders received to date are being processed by AFM for immediate and full refund. Any offline orders that have already been taken will be refunded by St. Andrew EPC.
Angel Food Ministries intends to continue their ministry and are not considering ceasing operations. Rather, they are seeking ways to strategically reorganize and re-emerge with an improved model that is more sustainable given our current economic climate.
Media inquiries should be directed to 770-266-2017.
On a personal note, words cannot express our appreciation for allowing us to serve you. As you can imagine, this has left us with heavy hearts and much sadness. Please continue to watch this blog and follow us on Facebook so we can keep you update on Angel Food Ministries progress and whatever course of action God leads our local ministry now and in the future.
Blessings

Order Deadline is Sunday
Hey, here’s a little reminder that the order deadline is this Sunday, March 20th. Offline orders are due at 12 noon and online orders are due at 11:59PM.
November AngelFood Order Deadline Extended
We’re pleased to announce that Angel Food Ministries has extended the November order deadline until Sunday November 14th at 11:59 pm EST (offline orders are due at noon). Hopefully this will allow you more time in your budget so you can place your order if cashflow (due to Friday payrolls) is an issue. The Thanksgiving Holiday Boxe can be ordered through the 14th too.
Check Your Calendars and Plan Your Orders
We’re inching very close to that time of year when everything gets a little bit hectic due to the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holidays. One reason for that is simply all the “extra” things we have to do in our schedules, but in this case, it’s due to compression of schedules.
As you know, AngelFood has special Holiday Boxes that will be delivered with November and December distributions. That seems very easy, right?
Well, it is, but please also make note of the timeline changes for those two months. The order deadlines and distributions are about a week earlier for both months to make sure you get your holiday boxes in time and to help alleviate some of the stress that comes with trying to get everything done at the last minute for Thanskgiving and Christmas gatherings.
October will still follow a typical schedule, but here are the important dates for you to remember for November and December. Also, to help you plan accordingly for budget and timing reasons, we’ve updated the calendar page for the remainder of the year.
November Order Deadline = 11/11 at noon
November Distribution = 11/20 – 9:30-11AMDecember Order Deadline = 12/9 at noon
December Distribution = 12/18 – 9:30-11AM
AngelFood Calendar
We’ve implemented a calendar page that integrates with Google. We’re going to work on getting the rest of the year’s deadlines and distribution info added along with any other important information or events. Check it out and let us know what you think.
Ice Cream Social In August
mmmm.... Ice Cream
With August’s distribution, we’re hosting a free ice cream social. So, you may want to bring a cooler to store your food while you indulge your sweet tooth (or we can keep it cool for you until you are ready to go).
It’s just our way of thanking you for allowing us to serve you. And feel free to bring a friend or two. It’s open to everyone. Rain or shine!
Saturday, August 28 ~ 9:30 to 11AM
