Our long time dream has become a reality. Led by the Outreach Committee, our congregation has always participated in activities to help those in need, but longed for a way to help those in our community directly.
In May 2015, our parishioner, Cardie Mortimer, generously donated the funds to renovate our kitchen in honor of his parents, Charles and Elisabeth Mortimer. The kitchen was dedicated in October and now includes a food pantry to store goods for those in need.
Our Pantry will continue local home deliveries for December 2021 and accept shoppers on Saturday, December 18 from 9-11am, A WEEK EARLIER than usual due to the Christmas Day Holiday. Shoppers must maintain physical distancing and remain within their cars. Volunteers will be required to wear masks and will bring pre-packaged bags to shoppers' cars.
Our Pantry will continue local home deliveries for November 2021 and accept shoppers on Saturday, November 27 from 9-11am, our usual 4th Saturday distribution day. Shoppers must maintain physical distancing and remain within their cars. Volunteers will be required to wear masks and will bring pre-packaged bags to shoppers' cars.
A small group of socially distanced, mask wearing Food Pantry volunteers will be in the lower level for three shifts (8:30-9:30am, 9:45-10:45am and 11am-12pm) prepackings bags for our shoppers -- they will then carry them up to the sanctuary. It's hard physical work!
