# Good News – May 2025
[Monthly Good News](https://masterprovisions.org/master-provisions-blog/tag/monthly-good-news)
Good News! This month, Master Provisions was featured in the news multiple times.
Check out the interviews below, and read on for more great things that have been happening at MP lately!
Beechwood Senior Serve Day
Thank you, Liz and WCPO Local 12 for hosting us!
This month, our new Warehouse Manager started. Say hello to Jerry next time you’re at the food center! We also got to celebrate our founder, Roger Babik, as he officially retired. We pray he enjoys a well-deserved retirement filled with travel, family, and Jesus. Roger has left an incredible legacy at Master Provisions, and we will be forever thankful for his example of faith and service. Congratulations, Roger!

Lakeside Christian Church brought 50 people for their Serve Day, Heritage Bank and Iron Road sent great groups of volunteers, and Student Days wrapped up with some amazing kids. Thank you to all of the many people who shared their time and talents with us this month!

We raised $15,450 for KY Gives Day this year – a new record! Thanks to your incredible generosity, we will be able to provide nearly 31,000 additional meals to the food insecure in Greater Cincinnati. The impact of these gifts will be felt across the tri-state. We couldn’t do it without you!
ACE Hardware of Independence wrapped up their April round-up raising a total of $6547 for MP. What a blessing – thank you!!
If you like to golf and missed our spring event (or you just want to play again!), save the date for our Larry Nelson Master Pro Golf Classic on Monday, August 18th. Reach out to John if you want to be a sponsor:

This week, we received over 4700 gallons of milk thanks to a load that shifted inside the semi en route to delivery. While some of the packaging was crushed and it had slid off the pallets making it considerably more difficult to unload, the product was great with a “Best By” date of June 4th.
The husband and wife truck driver were left with the task of figuring out what to do with the product, and as Christians, they prayed about it. God led them right to Master Provisions, even though they were from across the country and had never heard of us.
None of us love uncertainty, waiting, or feeling helpless. But what a reminder this was that God provides what we need when we need it! In His timing and in ways we wouldn’t often think of, He provides for His children.
*“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.”* Philippians 4:19
