Have You Heard of the Pantry?

First United Monday Spotlight

August 8, 2022

Welcome to our Monday Spotlight. Each week, we'll be shining a light on special activities or sharing some information about our church family.

Have You Heard of the Pantry?

The Presbyterian Pantry is a mission project to help the nutritional needs of people in the Green Bay/De Pere area. It was organized by First Presbyterian (Green Bay), First United Presbyterian (De Pere), and Wequiock Presbyterian Church. The food storage and distribution is handled at First Presbyterian Church on Ashland Avenue.

All three churches collect donations of non-perishable food and monetary support. The August "Item of the Month" is healthy, non-sugar cereal, and our church's donation site is in our Family Life Center. Our church volunteers also help pack grocery bags and set up on the 2nd and 4th Mondays each month (*that's today and 8/22). If you'd like to get involved or find out more, call Julie Mackey (920-337-0890) or Susan Leiber (920-337-0979) who lead our efforts. It's another ongoing way we can count our blessings, pool our efforts, and help our neighbors!

Watch for our Thursday Weekly Newsletter for a review of everything going on with our church family. Please contact the church office or email Mark Young at communications.fupc@gmail.com if you're not already on our regular email list.
