• Description: Have you fallen on tough times? You're not alone. Our food pantry is here for you. Here's what you need to know: Our pantry is open to the public on the first Sunday of every month (except on holiday weekends, in which case the pantry is open the second Sunday of the month). All you need is some form of identification or a bill. Our selection varies, but usually includes canned items, breads, non-perishables, meats, and occasionally fresh produce. We also usually have various toiletries and infant diapers. There are two main options for accessing our pantry: OPTION ONE: Following our 11:00 am Sunday service we open the pantry for anyone who was in attendance. This is a great way to avoid the lines and get access to the largest selection. OPTION TWO: On that same Sunday between 1:00-3:00 pm the pantry is open to community. When the pantry is open find your way to the line. As soon as possible, you will be asked to fill out a brief form (if this is your first visit) or initial your form (if you hahve been here before). You will receive a number which reserves your spot in line. Once you have a number you can have a seat and relax in our seating area. Help yourself to drinks and refreshments. When your number is called, one of our volunteers will greet you and walk with you through the pantry. You can then pick from our selection whatever you want to fill your bags with. Once through the main pantry room, you will be led to a table with a selection of meats for you can choose from. If you need assistance carrying all your food to the car, we will have volunteers available to cart or carry your groceries outside. If at any point you would like someone to talk or pray with, just let one of our volunteers know. We are here because we care and want to help in any way we can.
