Food Walk for Hunger in Southport
Advertisement
The 42nd Annual Southport/Oak Island Interchurch Fellowship Walk (SOIICF) is
scheduled for October 18, 2026, at Franklin Square Park, Southport.
Registration begins
at 1:30 PM, and the walk begins at 2:00 PM. Special Music will be provided by the
Children’s Choir of Trinity United Methodist Church. A brief prayer service for
community needs is included, led by the multiple clergy of the SOIICF member churches.
The 3-Mile Walk begins and ends at the Park, passing six of our member churches,
where water will be available. The route will be clearly marked with signs.
Over the prior 41 years of Walks, $378,800 has been raised to support human needs in
our community. Rental payments, water and electric bill assistance, and food insecurity
are a few areas of ongoing need. Additionally, we donate 25% of the funds raised, to
Church World Service, a world-wide ministry helping people fight hunger and meet
other needs.
Bring your neighbors, invite your children and grandchildren, and join us for a day of
fellowship and fun!
There are other ways to participate, if unable join us for the Walk:
• Support a Walker with a generous donation
• Be a Spirit Walker – raise funds though unable to Walk
• Be a Volunteer Helper on Walk Day
• Recruit and promote the Walk in your church or group
• Pray for the ICF Walk and for the poor and hungry
