Tabernacle Food Pantry Walking against Hunger

TMBC Members walking the walk
June 25th was a stellar day for the TMBC's food panty took to the street along with other churches and organizations to fight against hunger. Members joined in The Greater Chicago Food Depository's annual 5K Hunger Walk which directly benefits the Food Depository's network of 650 pantries, soup kitchens and shelters in Cook County which Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church is proud to be a part of. It's said that people came out in record numbers.

Tabernacle's food pantry is open every third Friday of the month between 12:00 noon and 2:00pm ready to meet the needs of the low income households as much as possible in the 60653 and other area codes. If you would like to donate to the food pantry please make checks payable to Ms. Lois Lester and note "For Tabernacle Food Pantry" or use our Paypal Donate button and in the Paypal notes add "For Tabernacle Food Pantry".

The food pantry is a very worthy cause and hopes to be there for as long as possible, but it takes finances to make that happen because we do have to buy the food.

Tabernacle Multimedia Ministry

As of Sunday May 22, 2011 the Tabernacle Sound Ministry is now the Tabernacle Multimedia Ministry. This change has come about now that sound is not the only thing we do. Staying current means being able to provide content in many forms and that is what we are doing. This website will keep you abreast of all that is going on with Tabernacle, while sermons can be seen on Youtube and finally we now have our own disc duplication department.

Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church was founded in 1941 by the great Dr. Louis Rawls, way before the time of the VHS and certainly the internet, CDs and DVDs. But as time went on communication technology grew. Tabernacle's sound ministry would record sermons to cassette tapes and then dub them from tape to tape with a high speed dubber.

It was decided by former Pastor Andrew D. Hunt Jr. that he wanted to present these sermons on CD. These CDs were prepared and burned on a Macbook via Apple's Garage Band software, then duplicated one at a time on an old G4 desktop and paper inkjet CD faces were press to the top. When Pastor Hunt departed the sound ministry stopped doing CDs. 

A few months ago our current Pastor, Willie F. Green Jr. came to us and stated he had a vision of being able to bring the sermons to people on the web and on CDs. After greenlighting the restructuring of the Tabernacle Youtube account and being given a few estimates it was decided that we had enough to put the whole plan into effect. Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church became the proud owners of a real time CD recorder and a professional duplicator.

That's right Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church now has the ability to produce professional quality CDs with great sound quality and Lightscribe technology. And soon MP3s for iPods and other such players may be on the way. We will continue to stay on top of technology to bring the message of God to you.
