Food Pantry

"Those who oppress the poor, insult their Maker. But, those that are kind to the needy honor Him" Prov 14:31

Our Food Pantry was originally started for those in need of food at our church, but in September of 2008 we expanded it to serve our community and surrounding areas. We are affiliated with the Western New York Food Bank, and are required to adhere to their guidelines. All recipients must be residents of Cattaraugus County, and are required to fill out an application. The intent of the program is to be a temporary source of food for those having difficulty making ends meet. The Food pantry is open the first and third Saturdays of each month from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Recipients are given the equivalent of 9 meals for each family member, and are limited to one visit per month. We currently serve approximately 90 families each month. Donations and volunteer help are always welcome. We can be contacted through the church office. It is truly a blessing to be part of this ministry.
