Helping to Feed the Homeless
Dear Serving Friends at First Baptist Church of Norfolk,
We are so humbled and honored to serve the homeless people at Union Mission Ministries.
With food donation that you gave after event at your church, you helped us to reach 10,000 meals donated to homeless people at Union Mission (since 2011).
Our ministry also partners with Old Dominion University to bring all leftover meals from ODU campus to homeless shelter.
Thank you for your partnership and care for the homeless.
May the Lord continue to bless First Baptist Church of Norfolk families!

Hello dear International and American friends,
Hope you have a great semester at ODU this week. We want to invite you to join us for a night of international fellowship on Fridays called FISH or Fridays International Supper and Hospitality. Supper is a meal that is served between 6-7 pm. Our gathering is open for everyone. We love people from different nations. It is a wonderful experience as we meet people from around the world, learn about their culture respectfully, and study God's Words together in our...fellowship. We meet on Friday evening from 6:00-9:00 pm. International meal is served at 6:00 pm. (For food and drink: American friends are encouraged to bring food to share. If Int'l friends would like to bring food, it' welcome but it's not mandatory. Thanks). The topic for this Friday is "God loves the peoples of the world" and the speaker is our friend, Rich Hardison. Rich is now the Senior Pastor of Virginia Beach Community Chapel in Virginia Beach, Virginia. He and his wife are very active in serving Internationals from around the world. They often host International events at their house. They have two children, Janel and Zach, and four grand children. Their global experience includes several months teaching English in, at the time, a new country called Ukraine (in early 1990s). Hope to see you this Friday.
Best regards, Frency, Kavitha, Sem, and Kurnia
