FOOD DRIVE with Amazon Wish List!
Due to an increased demand for food and a shortage received from our suppliers, our Food Ministry is in need of non-perishable, non-expired foods. Most needed items are cereal, rice, canned vegetables, fruit and beans, snacks, dry potatoes, dry beans, canned meat, macaroni and cheese, pasta, ramen, and peanut butter. Please drop off any donations at the bins near the Sanctuary doors at any time, or shop our Amazon Wish List from the comfort of your home.
