On Wednesday of each week throughout the year, the Food Pantry ministry provides bags of groceries to needy families, individuals and homeless persons in the Jefferson Park and other local Communities. At Thanksgiving needy families, homeless families and needy individuals are given the ingredients for a complete thanksgiving dinner including a turkey in the package for large families. Food given to needy families and individuals is generally purchased by the church membership. Occasionally, and during the holiday seasons, outside organizations with which the church is associated, donate food items to the church’s food pantry to be included in the distribution of food to needy families.
