Our Vision for the Bread of Life Food Pantry has become a reality. In December it was a blessing to see the new walk-in fridge and freezer installed. It was an even bigger blessing to see how God used one of FreedomWorks 2014 graduates, Brady Irons and a former mentor, Rick Anderson, to design the right equipment to fit our space.
Brady came to FreedomWorks after finishing a 72-month prison sentence. After completing the Reentry program he became a light to others coming after him. Several years later Rick and a FreedomWorks alumni, Kevin Rahman, advocated for hiring Brady as a Service Tech at Crown Tonka Refrigeration. Who would have ever guessed that God was “Preparing a Way” for the actualization of the food pantry.
After deciding to purchase equipment from Crown Tonka, it just so happened that Brady was promoted to the MidWest Sales/ Service Director. Brady, Rick and Kevin then coordinated a team of 15 volunteers (Crown Tonka employees) to assemble our equipment and then leveraged professional relationships to get the coolant systems up and running
