Mission For All Nations is a faith-based charitable organization founded to put Love into Action by providing food, clothing, shelter and other necessities to people of all ethnic backgrounds who are in need. We are creating an environment where lives are being changed instead of fostering dependency. Mission For All Nations currently serves nearly 25,000 people each year in our programs.
Our Homelessness and Hunger Prevention program supplies a food pantry order to provide nearly ½ a million meals to 22,500 needy individuals, making it the largest food pantry in the state of Nebraska. In addition to food, we provide clothing, hygiene products, and household items to families in need.
Bringing Hope the Anchor of the Soul to South Omaha!
Cheryl and Oren’s Story
Cheryl Powley and her husband, Oren, who is disabled, are very thankful for Mission For All Nations. A lot of their money goes to buy expensive medicine for Oren who has two heart stints. Recently when their car broke down three times they were in dire need. Then, Cheryl lost her job. She has applied for unemployment but has not received it yet. Cheryl says, “His checks don’t cover the bills- that’s why I am trying to help us. The food helps until we get our check. I take one day at a time – if you try to look two weeks ahead you will go crazy.” Cheryl is grateful that Mission For All Nations has always been there for them in times of crisis.

Dear Friends,
We need many more volunteers to help collect food and donations at local Hy-Vee Stores. Please call 733-1904 or e-mail info@missionfan.com to volunteer. If you can’t volunteer, please remember to buy a sack of food or make a donation August 11-17th. We started our new sack lunch distribution last month and distributed 650 lunches. Our new satellite pantry opens Saturday, August 9th in partnership with Lord of Hosts Church at 139th & Q. School is about to start and we still need many more backpacks. It is busy times like these when it is important to stop and prioritize. Will you help someone today?
TEXT OF THE MONTH: |
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress |
In His Service and Love,
Josue and Mary Anaya, Founders
