A little about the keynote speaker:

Joe Melendrez was featured on MTV and developed a love for performing. Later that year, on a Teen A.C.T.S. Retreat, Joe encountered the awesome love of God. It was then that he decided to dedicate his life to sharing the Good News. Joe uses his skills to animate huge crowds of teens, and he continues to share these gifts at major youth rallies, conferences, and national events.

Feed My Starving Children MobilePack Event held at St. John Nepomucene from December 1st – 2nd

Every year millions of children die from preventable causes such as pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria and undernutrition. Today, hunger still causes nearly half of deaths in children under 5 years old. This is heartbreaking. But you can make a difference!

Through our Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) MobilePack™ event at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Community on December 1st through December 2nd, our community is responding to the cries of those in need by producing 130,000 nutritious meals for kids around the world.  

We invite you to join us! We’re looking for 680 volunteers to pack meals and help us raise $40,000 for this MobilePack event. Adults and children (5 years and older) will measure and scoop ingredients, seal bags and prepare boxes for shipping.

Invite your friends, family, coworkers or school group!

Registration will open on Friday, October 20th. Visit stjn.org/feedmystarvingchildren to volunteer, donate or become an event sponsor.
