Our mission

To be the hands and feet of Jesus by building relationships with people in need through compassionate engagement, providing basic needs and education.

Food Pantry

Help unload and stock items received in monthly food truck delivery, pack food and personal care items for clients of the food pantry, stock food pantry cabinets, count and sort donations (food, back-to-school supplies, coats, personal care items), and sometimes assist with mailings (stuffing/labeling) and making phone calls. There is some lifting and toting required – most often nothing more than you would encounter in regular grocery shopping and stocking cabinets in your home.
