Give-Back Cookout Feeds Morgantown Community



While there were probably many cookouts this Memorial Day weekend, on special one was giving back to the community. 

Suncrest United Methodist Church held a Give-Back Cookout at Hazel Ruby McQuain Park in Morgantown to feed those in need of a hot meal and bring everyone together.

This is the second time the church has done this as a way to help the organizations in the city who feed the hungry every other day and give them a day with their families.

“Thinking about those who need a little bit of help, this is one of the ways our Church decided to give back,” said Rob Alsop who attends Suncrest United Methodist Church. “There are people at the Salvation Army and the Bartlett House that are always helping and so we wanted to be helpful this weekend.”

“We’re hearing lots of wonderful stories and lots of sad stories as well, but it’s good just to know people that are just as much a part of our community as anybody,” said Tim Halloran, one of the Pastors of Suncrest United Methodist. “We should be inclusive of everyone.”

The Church is also planning another Give-Back Cookout for Labor Day.
