We are so grateful for how God is using our Meal Ministry, and the families we serve are deeply appreciative of your kindness. We currently average around 60 households each week, and new families continue to walk through our doors every distribution.

While our Meal Ministry is 80% supplied by Costco and the Eastern Illinois Foodbank, we rely heavily on monetary and food donations from our congregation to cover the rest.

With school starting, local families are in need of nutritious snacks for school lunches. Below are a few suggested items you can donate to help support them:

Suggested Food Donations:

• Beef broth
• Chicken broth
• Beef gravy mix
• Microwave popcorn
• Fruit roll-ups
• Chips (small individual bags)
• Granola bars
• Raisins (small individual boxes)
• Sandwich crackers
• Cookies (small individual packages)
