• Description: Emmanuel maintains a food pantry for distribution of emergency food supplies based on referrals from local services agencies. Food is contributed to the church by members or purchased through service organizations such as Food Gatherers, sorted, and packed into boxes to feed families of different sizes. Because of the depressed economic conditions in southeast Michigan, more and more families and individuals are in need of assistance in feeding themselves. Emmanuel's Food Pantry continues in its mission to fill that gap; however demand for our services has doubled in the last year alone. Your continued support in all facets of this ministry are needed. Individuals and families in need of emergency food may receive a 3-day supply of food at Emmanuel. Food is distributed on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, from 3:00 PM -- 3:45 PM. A family or household is eligible one every three months. As of October 2011, a referral from a social services organization is no longer required. Those in need of emergency food fill out a self-declaration of need and provide a a picture ID.
