Annual Fundraising Banquet!


Dear Friends of Morning Star, 

We are grateful for the opportunity to share what God is doing through Morning Star Fresh Food Ministry and would love to invite you to our annual "Bridge the Gap" Banquet on Saturday, April 18th. It is through partnerships with you, our supporters and donors and our local butchers, farmers and growers, that we are able to purchase and provide high-quality meats, fresh fruits, and vegetables to over 550 families every month. The food we are able to source nourish both the body and the spirit! 

Every month, our volunteers help pack and deliver the food boxes to families in Bakersfield, CA - Sharing not only fresh food, but also the love and hope of Jesus Christ. Together, with the entire team, we are able to help lighten the burden during the last week of the month. Your faithfulness as donors and volunteers play a vital role in this ministry. We invite you to continue walking with us in this mission. Your generosity helps us extend our reach, serve more families, and shine the light of Jesus in practical meaningful ways. 

Thank you for believing in the mission and vision to provide fresh food and the hope and love of Jesus to families in need. Join us on April 18th for a wonderful evening of food, friendship, and inspiring stories. Hope to see you there! 

With love, 
Bret and Shawn Sill 
(Founders & Directors)

Every Month

We source local growers, farmers and butchers
to provide fresh food to families in Bakersfield every month.

Every fourth Saturday of the month, volunteers come together, individuals and families,  to pack and fill boxes with fresh fruits and veggies and locally sourced meats.

After the boxes are packed, we gather to pray for the families we serve and then have teams of people deliver the fresh food to local churches,
non-profits and families at their homes.
Relationships are built and the message of Hope is shared.

We  have an App on
Apple & Google platforms!

A Morning Star Story

Meet Jennifer and Kirk. Little did they know their lives would be forever changed when they decided to volunteer to help pack and deliver food boxes with Morning Star Fresh Food Ministry every month. 

“Why spend money on food that will do you no good? Why spend money on food that will not satisfy you?
Listen, listen to me and I will tell you where to get food that is good for your soul.”
- Isaiah 55:2

A Morning Star Story

Meet Erica. After overcoming many life challenges, she found herself at Morning Star Fresh Food Ministry on a Saturday morning to say thank you to the team that delivered food to her family when we was not able to provide for them. She ended up getting to know a few people and God opened some pretty incredible doors for her in the community. She is an incredible woman!
