JERSEYVILLE - The Got Faith weekend is rapidly approaching and will occur May 5, 6 and 7 in Jersey County.
Several businesses throughout Jersey County are offering savings and discounts during the three-day weekend. The hope is some of the save while shopping will go to Got Faith, a local faith-based interdenominational 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a primary mission to feed and inspire the hungry.

Steve Pegram is the founder of the organization and said he believes that people should serve others not just during the Christmas season, but year round. He said this is another way to provide needed service to others. Pegram has spent years developing the Got Faith organization to help the needy.
“Got Faith has been around for about 10 years,” Pegram said. “These businesses in my opinion just get bombarded with people coming in with donations. For this program, it is our way of saying thank you to the businesses. There are 62 Jersey County stores involved. We also have T-shirts for sale.”
Pegram said the Got Faith weekend is an awesome event and helps bring the community together.
Pegram asks that people who wish to contribute money from their savings at the different businesses to put into their church basket.
For more information, contact Pegram at (618) 786-3550. Purchase T-shirts from Julie's Graphics, the Jersey County Shopper, Nature Kist 2nd Time Around Consignment Shop and First United Methodist Church for $10.
