On Friday, November 29, 2024 at 8:30 a.m., Bishop David Zubik and Christians from across the Pittsburgh area will partner with Amen to Action to pack meals for the needy at North Catholic High School (1617 Route 228, Cranberry Township, PA 16066).
This is the final of 12 food packing events held at local Christian organizations in November 2024. Everyone is invited to attend.
Each fall, Amen to Action provides over one million meals to the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. Each Christian organization that participated provided its facilities, purchased meals, and recruited volunteers.
Amen to Action was founded in 2016 and 2017, when Christian leaders – including Bishop David Zubik and Reid Carpenter – met regularly to pray for Christian unity. They hoped that this unity would do more good for the city of Pittsburgh than “all the coal in the hills and steel in the mills…” These leaders became convinced that their prayers should be turned into an act of community service and created Amen to Action.
