Some of these people are regulars who depend on us to supplement what they are able to buy on their own. Some of these people come infrequently - using our services only when they can't make it on their own. Some of these people come to us for a short period of time until they can get on their feet again. This congregation is able to touch the lives of so many, whatever their level of need. Thank you to all of you who support the Pantry with your prayers, your time and service or your donations. If you would like to become a member of the team (or a substitute) please contact Christy Moore at Items most needed are peanut butter, jelly, pasta sauce, pasta, tuna, rice, cereal and beans.
