Powell heads up NorthRidge Church.
In 2011, he directed 5,000 volunteers as they packed 1 million meals in the same time period.
Now, Powell is looking to double that effort Feb. 14-16, at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi.
NorthRidge is partnering with Feed My Starving Children, a nonprofit Christian organization based in Coon Rapids, Minn., to make it happen.
The packing will take place in 11 two-hour shifts, with 900 people packing during each shift.
The Suburban Collection Showplace is donating 65,000 square feet of space for the event.
