Northwest Indiana FOOD DRIVE

Every year, Redeemer Church collects non-perishable food items for the NWI Food Drive sponsored by Local Missionary, Billy Sampson.  Since 2015, the Sampsons collect and supply food to individuals in the Chicagoland/NW Indiana area.  Starting with 30 families. Today, they now serve over 600 families for Christmas every year.

The Sampsons minister to people all over the country all year long and as dedicated advocates for local outreach, they believe in giving back locally.  Billy works with over 25 area churches, …and has out of state partners as well to help serve our local community.
