Food Pantry
This Institution is an Equal Opportunity Provider.

A Ministry of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church

Current Food Pantry Hours
Tuesdays from 10:00 AM to 12:00 Noon
Thursdays from 5:00 to 7:00 PM
People may participate once every twenty eight to thirty days.
(The Food Pantry will be closed on some holidays.)

Beginning November 1st: Food Pantry Hours Change
New Pantry Hours:
     Thursday evenings 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm
     Friday mornings 11:30 am to 1:30 pm


Supporting Families at 185% of Poverty Level
It is recommended that the Food Pantry support families who are at 185% of the poverty level. For example, a family of four may have an income of $55,500. That may sound like a solid middle class salary but if they also have unexpected medical bills or other unpaid bills, they are welcome at the food pantry. Guests do not show us their financial situation, only an ID. This is just an example to demonstrate we would like to support families who may be working but still struggling financially.
