A Short Note from Doris and Karen:
Happy New Year! Another year has passed us by. We hope it has been a good year and that 2025 will be an even better year with lots of blessings for all. I know our FBC food pantry is blessed, and it is from all of your dedication to it through your generous donations of food and monetary donations all year long.
We have some good news - a big THANK YOU to the Stigall family who has graciously donated a refrigerator/freezer to our pantry. With this, we hope to be able to supply some perishable foods along with non-perishables we now give out to our community in need. We will have more information about this in the months ahead.
Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:6-8
Do what you can and all you can do is enough!
