Fellowship of Faith Ministries continues to serve the entire Cocke and surrounding county area through it's two ministries, Loaves and Fishes Food Ministry and A Servant's Heart  Outreach Ministry.

It is almost time to begin this year's A Servant's Heart for Senior Christmas tree project to be held in co-ordination with the Cocke County Sheriff's Office.

Last year the A Servant's Heart for Seniors tree was located in the Cocke County courthouse as it will be this year. Sheriff Armando Fontes has pledged to help once again in the collection of gifts for area senior citizens who might not have a Christmas gift this year.

The ministry includes on the Christmas tree ornaments the names of local senior citizens (over 60) and three gift idea suggestions. The ornaments are taken from the tree by local citizens who wish to show love to a senior by "adopting" them this Christmas. Gift ideas are mostly "needs", not necessarily "wants".
