The Barnabas Network

First Presbyterian Church

Neil Dunnavant, Associate Pastor for Outreach Ministry

The Barnabas Network is included in our annual budget. We have people call in who want to give furniture and I tell them to call Barnabas. I am sure we have referred hundreds of people to them. We have had some members of our church on the board.

I recently went to the warehouse for the first time to help translate for a Cuban woman, as I speak Spanish. She had a new apartment and needed a whole apartment of furniture. I was so impressed with how the staff treated her, and how generously she was given everything she needed. It’s awesome. It’s well organized and they have such nice things.
