Manna Pantry
Friday, November 13, 3:00 - 5:00 PM
Saturday, November 14, 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Manna Pantry is a ministry that provides food to 130 families and individuals throughout the year. Friday volunteers help unload the truck, arrange tables, assemble boxes, open and sort items, and box food for persons who will need special assistance the next day. Saturday volunteers will greet and check in guests, then fill their boxes as they move them along the tables cafeteria-style. Some volunteers are needed to assist persons by carrying their loaded boxes to their cars.  This is a good ministry for adults, teens, and older children with parents.  For more information  contact Anita Tanner  or by telephone (706) 993-5720.
