FOOD PANTRY

The Food Pantry was established in 2009 and has become a vital ministry to the congregation and community. The Pantry is open to the public the third Wednesday of each month from 10 AM -12 PM. Food Distribution in our church takes place on the last Sunday of the month, where the congregation can pick up one bag of grocery items that they can distribute to those they may know in need. The first Sunday of the month is designated as "TWO-CAN" Sunday, but donations are accepted every week. Many familes have been helped by your generosity. Always needed are cereal, cans of soup, baked beans, vegetables, peanut butter, jelly, spaghetti sauce, tuna, and canned fruit. Pasta, noodles, and rice are always helpful. Monetary donations are also accepted, and they'll do the shopping for you!

We will open the third Wednesday of the month starting January 20, 2021, 10 AM - noon.

We are so excited to be planning for a 2023 Scarecrow Festival. The date is set for Saturday September 23, 2023. 10 AM till 4 PM. This will be our 15^th festival. The festival is going to probably look a little different but it is still going to be all about fun for the whole family and community.

We are looking for a coordinator for the Scarecrows. We need many volunteers and coordinators to make it successful. A list of areas that need coordinators is posted on the bulletin board outside Dudek Hall. PLEASE add your name, phone, and e-mail to the list if you would like to help. Meetings will begin in January via Zoom on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM.

Questions call Shari Purcell 860-917-9011 or e-mail shariLpurcell@gmail.com or call the church office at 860-887-4647.

The Food Pantry is open Wednesday, April 19,
