About the Elijah’s Promise:
”Elijah’s Promise was established in 1989 when three local churches joined together to form a soup kitchen. Places of worship have been our central volunteer base ever since-preparing and serving meals. The name Elijah’s Promise comes for the Old Testament passage where the prophet Elijah encountered a widow in Zarephath. Elijah asked her for food and water and the widow told Elijah how little she had. Elijah replied, “If you share with me, I promise you you’ll never be hungry.” That is our philosophy and as long as we continue to share, no one in our community needs to be hungry.”
