Let's work together on January 8th, 2025. St. John's UCC in partnership with Sudanese Grace Episcopal Church will host a Feeding America Mobile Food Pantry at 1550 Oswego NW, Grand Rapids, MI 49504. Volunteers will gather at 5:00 pm, distribution begins at 6:00 pm. We are an equal opportunity provider. Last month, we served 111 households, 386 individuals, 145 children, 76 seniors and 5 veterans. A total of 27 dedicated volunteers braved the winter advisory weather and moved 8,361 pounds of food. Five new people joined our volunteer crew: Laura Sue, Laura Taylor, Darin, Emily and Bryson Lambert. Thank you for working so hard! Christmas gifts were given to clients were made by Carol Stechow, Sharon VanBennekom, Mary Rose Johnson, Fern, Kathy, and Darin, Emily and Bryson Lambert. Thank you for sharing you gifts and talents! Three carloads of surplus food were delivered to UCOM by Richard Johnston, Jeffrey Dick and Nancy Carlson. For more information about the Mobile Food Pantry, feel free to contact Teresa Markoski at 616-690-4566 or at tmarkoski2004@yahoo.com. Financial support is always welcome by donating on the church app or by writing a personal check to St. John's United Church of Christ, 1934 Bridge Street, Grand Rapids, MI, 49504. It takes a village to feed our neighbors, together we serve.
