Faith in Action Outreach needs your help

Faith in Action Outreach in Malakoff is a ministry organization dedicated to helping people in need, but right now they are the ones in need.

FIAO is running low on money because the organization has helped so many people with emergency needs this year — needs like utilities, medicine, rent and shelter. Costs that added up to around $12,000 that was not budgeted.

The organization is vital and serves an average of 100 families every week through its food pantry, and an additional 100 students get a bag of food every weekend.

Please consider helping this important organization. Visit FIAO’s website at fiaoutreach.com to learn how to donate or to become a part of the group.

Malakoff and Eustace will be moving subvarsity football games from Thursday to Wednesday due to possible bad weather on Thursday. The JV will play at Eustace at 5 p.m. The 7th and 8th grade games will be in Malakoff starting at 4:30 p.m.

“This is their last game of year, and we did not want them to possibly miss out on getting to play,” said Malakoff ISD Superintendent Randy Perry. “We want to thank Eustace ISD for their understanding and cooperation.”

The rain put a damper on the Indian Stuff which was mostly held out doors, so by the time he could have got back, it was all over.
