The project to build shelving for RIFA in Jackson, TN got underway in earnest today, Saturday April 4th. Brothers Jeff McLemore, WM and Mike Stanton, SW worked on the shelving unit in the shop of Brother Mike Winslow, Sec. The unit was completed and is now ready for delivery to RIFA. This was a community outreach project of Jackson Lodge #45.
The Regional Inter-Faith Association (RIFA) was incorporated in 1976 as a join 
effort between local leaders and area churches to support local ministries and clergy groups in identifying the needs of people, securing resources, and providing programs to meet those needs.
Through RIFA's ministries, the faith community can work together more effectively to help those in need. Collectively they can meet needs in the community that would be impossible for a single church or organization.
RIFA has built a credible reputation by combining funds from many area churches, individuals and business sources to provide efficient, effective and unduplicated services for people with the most critical and basic human needs. RIFA is governed by a Board of Directors and depends on the generous support of over 1,000 volunteers annually.
