Manna Ministries of Hattiesburg (MMOH) was founded by Bishop Abraham Yarbrough in the year 2000. Its
main purpose is to reach out to the many families in need not only Hattiesburg and the Pine Belt Area , but
worldwide and assist them wherever there is a need.

clothing, and shelter to many displaced families from Hattiesburg, the Pine Belt Area, New Orleans, and
the Mississippi Gulf Coast . Coutless hours were spent assisting families with transportation to various
agencies. Bishop is very prolific.
