Food stamps have been reduced and the number of families and individuals going to food pantries has increased. The Lord’s Pantry is already affected by this. Congregations continue to be generous in their donations and that is greatly appreciated, but the need continues to grow.
To make dollars stretch, The Lord’s Pantry orders food from Philabundance and receives food at a cost less than the grocery store cost. If you care to make monetary donations your dollar goes further. The Lord’s Pantry also does a Christmas Giving Tree. Because donors like buying gifts for the children listed on the Giving Tree, many adults are overlooked.
The Lord’s Pantry covers this by purchasing $25 gift cards to WalMart and Giant so you might think about purchasing a gift card or two. In this holiday season of gift giving please prayerfully consider including the local food banks. You can bring donations to the church, or send directly to The Lord’s Pantry, 4050 Durham Road, Ottsville, PA 18942. For hours call 610-847-2402.
