The DeBows Food Pantry is open on the 2nd & 4th Monday each month, 6-8pm. DeBows uses an “Appointment Only” system to distribute the food. To make an appointment, call 848-373-8844.
Please note: participants need to call for an appointment by 5:00pm on the Saturday prior to the scheduled food pantry day. This gives the Food Pantry volunteers time to prepare the food for distribution. “Thank You” for your cooperation.
Please contact Pastor Scott if you need further information or would like to volunteer to help with the Food Pantry ministry.
For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in. – Matthew 25:35
DeBows had its beginnings in 1867. It was then known as the DeBows Methodist Episcopal Sabbath School. Christian education classes and worship were held in a small schoolhouse near the site of the present church building.
In May of 1896, DeBows was incorporated and officially became a Methodist Episcopal Church. Land was purchased at the current location and a new church building was erected.
You can see a complete history of DeBows and some pictures under the “About Us” menu tab.
