Food Pantry Needs
We are a drop-off site for the Lee Food Pantry and dedicated volunteers staff the pantry the fourth Saturday of each month from 10AM-12PM. The church office is open most weekdays; call the office first if you’d like to drop something off to be sure someone is here. Food shortages aren’t just around the holidays, but it is a time when it may be keenly felt.
The following list is to help you when you shop ~ whatever you can give is appreciated, it does not have to be an item on the list. Please, non-perishable items only!
