Gleanings for the Hungry is a ministry of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) headquartered in Dinuba, California. Our team is committing to a week-long, service-oriented missions trip at Gleanings. Village Church’s team will be joining Emmanuel Church Burbank and other groups as part of the volunteer work crew for processing dried fruit and dehydrated soup mix for global hunger relief. The daily schedule includes 8 hours of difficult and tedious manual labor. Gleanings staff, including both adults and college-aged interns, will give us direction and assign task during work hours. The Gleanings trip requires hard work and focus, but it also demands spiritual maturity and focus during group meetings, team activities and free time. Gleanings is a very fun and rewarding experience, but it is first and foremost a service missions trip for the benefit of hungry people.
