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
NOTICE
DUE TO THE PROJECTED SNOWSTORM, THE FOOD PANTRY SCHEDULED FOR MONDAY, JANUARY 26 HAS BEEN CANCELED. THE NEXT SCHEDULED FOOD PANTRY IS MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9.
The DeBows Food Pantry is open on the 2nd & 4th Monday each month, 5:45 to 7:45 PM. You may come anytime 5:45 to 7:45 PM. If you have any questions, please call 848-373-8844.
The Food Pantry Ministry serves over 100 families twice a month. We are extremely appreciative of the volunteers that make our Food Pantry possible, and we welcome anyone interested in getting involved. Please send email to the Food Pantry Team if you need further information or would like to explore ways to help with the Food Pantry ministry.
WANT TO VOLUNTEER? — We are currently distributing food to as many as 150 families twice a month. Volunteers are always needed and to effectively manage that process we now have an online signup page. On this page you can specify the exact day & time you are available to volunteer. Use the below link to access the Volunteer Signup Page. — Thank You
PLEASE NOTE — Many of the food items distributed are obtained through our affiliation with the Fulfill Foods Bank program. However, some items we could use from other sources include toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, bar soap, and other hygiene items. If you would like to donate any of these items, please bring them to the church or call 848-373-8844. Please check the expiration dates on anything you donate, as we cannot distribute expired items.
There is also a continuous need for reusable shopping bags to facilitate the distribution of food. Any donations of clean, reusable shopping bags would be greatly appreciated. There is a receptacle to place donated bags outside of Fellowship Hall.
