Out of an abundance of caution, for your safety and that of our "senior" volunteers, we have extended the closing period of the food pantry while our community navigates COVID-19, the ramp-up of vaccinations and the flu.

Navigating the Coronavirus Pandemic With Prayer and God's Word
The only thing we know right now is that we are indeed living in uncertain times: Watching the news and listening to the radio, the number of stories regarding the Coronavirus - the number of new cases of infection, businesses closing, job layoffs, stock market dropping, social distancing, the list goes on.
God is using this time to get our attention - to convict our spirits to pray, to repent, to reconnect, to step up and strengthen our relationship with Him. Click here for a prayer guide to use in lifting up our families, communities, state, nation and the world at large during these times.
Calling All Prayer Warriors!!
As a church family, let us remain diligent in frequent prayer, lifting up our brothers and sisters who are facing bereavement, serious illness, job loss, financial struggles, caretaking challenges, etc. We are calling upon our church family to be in prayer for each other, for healing, for strength, for breakthrough, for increased faith, for endurance during trials, for a renewed spirit of love in our daily dealings. By being on one accord, we can rely on God's goodness, His faithfulness, His guidance, His timing to bring us through victoriously, any thing that we face. We thank GOD for answering our prayers right now, In Jesus' Name.
