Thank you for your kindness and for thinking of those less fortunate during these times.

Many seniors supplement their fixed incomes by coming to the pantry for food assistance. Families living with food insecurity often need to visit the pantry to supplement their grocery budget. When donations are low, everyone gets less and sometimes the pantry shelves are bare. We can make a difference in the lives of people who live among us by simply picking up one food item (more if you are able) and dropping it off at church on Sundays or bring it to the church office during office hours. Thank you for your continued generosity.

Here are some suggested items...

BREAKFAST Cold Cereals, Pop Tarts, Cereal Bars, Carnation Instant Breakfast, Muffin mixes, Non-Refrigerated juices including V8, and Juice Boxes, Parmalat Milk (in canned milk aisle).
LUNCH Canned tuna, canned chicken, peanut butter, jams/jellies, Fluff, Spaghetti-O’s, ravioli, canned fruit, individual fruit cups (non-refrigerated), applesauce (large jars and individual cups).
