In March and October, this event is sponsored by the Fayetteville Urban Ministry. We band together with hundreds of others from churches all over Cumberland County to help restore homes of those in a targeted neighborhood. We do small repairs, paint and/or yard cleanup.

Operation Inasmuch Is . . .

• a city attorney delivering lunches for volunteers all over town;
• a retired Army officer roofing the house of a family he has never met;
• a school teacher cleaning a shut-in’s yard;
• a secretary sewing lap robes for nursing home patients and blankets for homeless persons;
• a thirteen-year-old mouthing the words to a story about Jesus for a puppet in a backyard Bible club in a neighborhood where children have never seen such a thing;
• a mother of three making Life Books for children in foster care;
• fifth-grade boys placing door hangers advertising their church’s contemporary worship on 300 apartments.

Operation Inasmuch Works Because. . .
