About Jose Flores

Jose & Kristy Flores have been serving together in ministry since their marriage in 2014. Initially, they served 3 years with YWAM Minneapolis running their kitchen ministries. During that time God opened many doors for the Flores’ in their local community in areas of emergency food services. Together Jose & Kristy have formed “Forgotten Harvest”, a ministry serving their local community through food rescue (finding and making food resources available to people in need before it goes bad) and relational ministry (mentoring, counseling, and listening to those the community has “forgotten” or marginalized).

Currently “Forgotten Harvest” collects produce (which would be otherwise discarded) and food staples from local growers, grocery stores, food shelves, and other food distributors. Food donations are then sorted and either given fresh, frozen, or prepared to individuals and organizations who need it. Along with serving in various youth mentoring programs, Jose is also teaching cooking classes to help people know they are not alone and to give them healthy food preparation skills.
