First United Methodist Church 

Food Pantry & Hope’s Corner

Tuesdays 10 am – Noon

Our pantry serves many less fortunate families from our congregation and our community. Our goal is to be able to help our neighbor families with a little food to get them through a rough time or an emergency situation. We also have a clothing closet to help those visiting our Food Panty. Hope’s Corner is open during the same Food Pantry hours.

Please bring your donations of non-perishable food and supplies and new or gently used clothing.

Some Heroes Wear Crosses

Pastor Armando brought Rev. Jonathan, visiting from Japan, to tour the FUMC Food Pantry and Hope’s Closet,  When they heard that the Pantry was in need of workers to take clients’ food to their cars, they volunteered to help for a few minutes.  Minutes became two hours of helping clients select food and free items, and assisting with taking everything on carts to the clients’ cars on one of the hottest days of the summer.  Pastor Armando and Rev. Jonathan stepped in and helped where they saw a need.  There is a beautiful phrase that says, “What we give may not always return, but what we give is always what we are.”  Pastor Armando and Rev. Jonathan were heroes wearing crosses at the Food Pantry that day.
