Greater Bethlehem Temple Pentecostal Church invites residents who need help obtaining food to visit the church website, gbtpcm.org/feeding-lynn-s-families to fill out an application for assistance.
“When the COVID-19 virus struck, Lynn and surrounding cities were hit badly. Bishop (Dr. Anthony P. Bennett) and Sister Bennett pledged $5,000 to purchase Market Basket grocery vouchers for anyone who needs help buying food and other supplies.They also set up a gofundme page to raise additional funds to provide $50 grocery vouchers for families in the Lynn area,” states the website.
The Bennetts initiated the church food assistance program in April and renewed it in September.
Once the website form is filled out, dates and times for a voucher or gift card distribution will be scheduled.
“With children back in school and families back to work we understand the city is still in need and we want to aid in servicing our community in Lynn,” said Bishop Bennett.
