Oregon Stake Members Experience a 'Windows of Heaven' Moment

Church members and friends in the Roseburg Oregon Stake gathered 6,354 pounds of food for UCAN during their "Greater Love" food drive.

Inspired by the Easter 2025 theme, the Roseburg Oregon Stake organized a “Greater Love” food drive to show love to their community in June 2025.

By the end of the donation process, Church members and friends throughout the Roseburg, Oregon, area had donated enough food to fill every single bin at the United Community Action Network Food Bank in Roseburg — a total of 6,354 pounds of food, the largest donation the food bank has seen in at least eight years.

“[God] took the little bag and slip of paper and all of our other individual efforts and filled every bin that UCAN had to literally feed 5,000,”

said President Ryan Loosli, first counselor in the Roseburg stake presidency, comparing the project to the story of Jesus multiplying a young boy’s offering of bread and fish to feed a crowd.
