Operation Inasmuch began in 1995 at Snyder Memorial Baptist Church in Fayetteville under the direction of Pastor David Crocker. Operation Inasmuch community-wide events have occurred in 10 states and in other countries. This is the first state-wide event. Operation Inasmuch is based on the Bible verse “And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” Matthew 25:40 (KJV)
