First Fruit Ministries
   
Donate
First Fruit Ministries is now feeding around 31,000 plates of food a year, and our women's and family transitional housing is currently full.  Additionally, we are now working with nineteen widows and others unable to leave their homes, whom we provide with hot meals, home visits and prayer, and transportation to Thursday night church services.  Local demand for our medical center has grown enormously.  We are grateful to God for bringing Wilmington's poeple in need to us.

As our outreach to the community grows, our cost of operations and need for volunteers grows as well.  The ministry needs people who will join in and support the work that we do with prayers, financial resources, and time.  To this end, we have established a Partnership Program.  We welcome your partnership through prayer or financial giving.  You can become a financial or prayer partner by completing one of the forms below or by contacting us directly.
