Food Pantry

Our Food Pantry is open every Tuesday and Thursday from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. If you are in need of pantry staples such as cereal, pasta, peanut butter, and canned goods know we can help!

Community Breakfast

Volunteers from St. John’s prepare and serve a hot breakfast for up to 200 people from the community at St. John’s, on the third and fifth Saturday of each month. Help is always appreciated from 7:30 to 11:00 a.m.

Blessing Box

Outside the Becker House, along the sidewalk, stands a wooden box with a clear
door. It’s the Blessings Box and it contains nutritious food items that require no,
or minimal, preparation and some necessary toiletries. New items are placed in
the Blessings Box daily by a St. John’s team. Our neighbors too have taken to help
stock the Blessings Box.

So, what’s the purpose of the Blessings Box? There are hungry people who open
the door and reach in for food items, free for the taking, that will hold them over
until they’re able to find their next meal. So, to these people, it is a box of
blessings. In this time of increasing food insecurity, that wooden box in front of St.
John’s shines ever brighter for those in need and for those called to keep the
Blessings Box constantly stocked.
