On Sunday, the church celebrated the end of this year's Harvest of Talents with a special worship service and the presentation of a check to Rick Jett, the executive director of  International Disaster Emergency Service.

Prior to the check presentation, Carolyn Neal offered a few words.

"Over a billion people go hungry, but tomorrow, that number will be less because of all the faithful Harvest hearts and hands who honored I Peter 4:10 and shared a measure of their time, talents and resources to partner with International Disaster Emergency Service and the 30th Harvest of Talents for World Hunger, raising $101,068.15 for hunger relief this year," Neal said. "You gathered your thoughts to pray, your family and friends, your coins, your talents, and your time to volunteer, and helped to make a difference that will stretch around the world in Jesus' name. On behalf of those who will receive Harvest food (physically and spiritually), thank YOU, bless you!!!"

The check was presented to Jett by Patricia Snyder. Jett in return presented "Servant's Towels" embroidered with the IDES logo and bearing the words "Your faithful service has made a world of difference" to Neal and Snyder.

The 2013 Harvest of Talents brought in $101,068.15, bringing the 30-year total to $1,819,213.38.  This was a record year, after the previous high total of  $92,499.88 back in 2008.
