We are one of the few pantries that actually makes deliveries. We are limited to our Crystal Lake area.
We found that it is difficult for many of the people that we deliever to to make arrangements to travel to the food pantry to get food.
That is why we come and visit you.
Pick-up time is Saturdays 10:00-2:00.
Call first, so that we can have your food ready for you.

Jesus had this teaching for his followers, “I was hungry and you gave me food…” Matthew 25:35
We believe that Jesus was teaching us that all of us have needs and that if we stand together we will overcome. Needing food does not reflect on your spirituality, but on a time in your life that, put simply…You need a little extra help with food.
The Apostle Paul tells us that in his ministry he experienced,
…hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. 2 Corinthians 11:27
And if he experienced it, why do we think it strange when we or those around us experience the same things?

We need a van or SUV for deliveries. We are now using a smaller SUV that has an engine that was rebuilt several years ago and gets terrible gas mileage. The A/C works only half the time.
