Food Pantry
The food pantry at church is being utilized many times a week. It is a huge blessing to be able to minister to the community and for them to be ministered to in this way. It is always in need of restocking. If this is an area that you would like to bless others with even a few items pick up a list of needed items from the Community Board in the Coffee Shop areas. Drop off boxes are located near several doors at church or can be dropped off at the church office during business hours.
