We testify about the love of God by proclaiming and serving. Our Food Pantry currently serves more than 40 people in need every month. They receive both perishable and nonperishable food, along with cleaning supplies that we collect from donations and the financial support of our church members.

The food pantry was launched after our Soup Kitchen program was closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Soup Kitchen served a large number of diners every Monday and received support from volunteers from our church and other churches.

Every second Saturday of the month, we distribute bags of food and cleaning supplies in our parking lot from 9:00 – 10:30 a.m. Recipients receive canned food, vegetables, fruits, cheese, bread, and eggs as well as hand sanitizer, shampoo, soap, toilet paper, and others.

Currently, the number of beneficiaries is growing. If you would like to support this ministry, you can send a check to
