WORK IN THE FOOD PANTRY - Every Friday afternoon, our church passes out 2,000 to 3,000 pounds of food to families in our area who are in need. We need volunteers (especially those strong muscles!) to shelve the food on Friday afternoons. We need workers to greet families and staff the pantry on Fridays from 2:00-6:00 pm. Even if you can only come help for an hour, you will be blessed!  To offer help with the Food Pantry, call 525-9555.
