Operation Sharing was started in April of 2002 by the Latin American Assembly of God Church in Hanford.  Every month on the last Saturday of the month they hand out to those within our community free hot food, toys, clothing, appliances and a wide variety of household goods.  All items that are given out are donated through the generosity of our local community members, churches, and the local Rotary Club.  When they first started this ministry only 30 family took advantage of it.  In recent times about 130 families show up every month.  An important part of the free food and household goods give away, those attending hear God’s Word through a time of learning and sharing prior to the giveaway.
