Who We Are

  • From His Hands is a Christian Ministry made up of churches and other caring groups in our community that serves meals to those in need in the Williamsburg & James City County area.

  • From His Hands (FHH) is an all volunteer, Christian ministry with a Leadership Committee that oversees operations. FHH is funded solely by donations from churches, individuals, and other organizations.

  • The purpose of From His Hands is to serve hot, nutritious meals to the hungry and homeless living in local motels and residents in the Grove Community of Greater Williamsburg.

  • A person is considered homeless if he/she lacks a fixed, regular night-time address. Persons living in motels or shelters are considered homeless. FHH serves the hungry and homeless with care, compassion, and without judgement. FHH is a community effort comprised of churches, businesses, and individuals.

What We Do

  • On Tuesday evenings, FHH prepares and delivers hot homemade meals to 50 families in need at the Grove Christian Outreach Center. (the list is provided by GCOC).

  • Hot meals and leave-behind bags are delivered on Wednesdays at 5:00 p.m. FHH volunteers, along with motel managers, deliver the meals and bags to individual rooms or residents pick up their meals in the lobby. FHH also picks up unsold bread at Panera Bread on Wednesday evenings.

  • From His Hands distributes Panera Bread to the needy living in the motels we serve.

  • Each Friday, hot meals and leave behind bags are delivered on Fridays at 5:00p.m. FHH volunteers, along with motel managers, deliver the meals and leave behind bags to individual rooms or residents pick up their meals in the lobby.

  • In the summer, FHH partners with The Meals on Wheels Summer Lunch Program that feeds lunches to needy children while they are out of school.
