Food Pantry

Our food pantry was the beneficiary of the leftover food from the fire relief program. Last Friday, March 31, Tom and Sharon Ames, Tom and Arlene Stephenson, Del Pope, Johnnie Bland and I moved food in 2 pickups, a suburban, and a trailer to the food pantry building and to a spare classroom building at our old church site. The city guys helped us load the food. This will greatly help our mission to feed the hungry. This is such a wonderful program supported by our church and our community. It couldn't function without such great volunteers. I'll try to keep you updated on the progress of the food pantry. In March we served 40 families, which includes 98 people. Our main need is paper sacks. When you get groceries, please ask for paper sacks and give them to us. We need about 80 sacks per month.
