Friend, Can You Spare Some Food?

 If you are interested in volunteering, please email Chris. Here is the volunteer signup:

Ascension's food pantry is a part of our Community Concerns ministry, which is led by Chris Daleiden. The need has never been greater and keeping the food pantry shelves full has never been more challenging.

If you are in a position to help, we ask you to consider the following suggestions the next time you go to the grocery store: Clip those coupons and don't forget to look online for them, too. What you save on your shopping you can share with others. Don't overlook those deals: "buy one, get one free" means you can buy one for yourself and get one free to give to the food pantry. Buy the store brand or look for special sales. If you are buying in bulk, maybe you don't need all that canned chicken, tuna or vegetables. Bring a few items to share - it won't go to waste! Help us keep the food pantry stocked year round! Together we can help feed our community!
