It's time again for our food drive, where we go out and collect food from the community. See some photos from last year's drive.

We’re joining together to support the less fortunate among us. Please use the signup form below to tell us how you can help!

FOOD SORTING AND BOX PACKING: We have set aside times for sorting and packing (see the bulletin), but please feel free to come any time in that window.

DELIVERING THE FOOD BOXES: Plan ahead to join us! We need drivers and deliverers. Refreshments, sharing time and fellowship to follow.
