St. Christopher’s Food Pantry is running critically low on some of the items listed below.

Your food bank, located in the "Rectory", is getting significant use each month....this in addition to the Backpack program. It is probably due to the increase in the price of perishable food and many other day to day increases. You can help...just pick up an extra item or two and place it in the green cart outside the church Hall (or inside to the right) !!

• Canned stew and chili
• canned vegetables...not green beans or peas
• coffee
• Pancake mix and syrup
• crackers
• canned chili
• Pasta and pasta sauces
• Canned tuna and chicken
• Hamburger and tuna helper
• boxed mashed or canned potatoes
• White rice (minute or long-cooking)
• various boxed cereals .not cheerios or toasted o's

Prayer: Father, Show us the power of your love...and allow your love to flow through us to others, so that by knowing us they might come to know you and your love. Amen
