Food pantries making a difference

Lazio Crescentini - ADRA NSW Regional Director

Throughout the NNSW conference, food pantries have been a direct answer to God’s call to feed His sheep.

Deane Street Food Pantry is an example of this and runs each Thursday in the community of Narara, Central Coast. Recently, a community member showed her support by writing a letter detailing how she could use groceries to make healthy meals for her children during a period of severe financial difficulty.

Singleton Food Pantry operates each Tuesday and has been a blessing in its local community. In June 2022, with help from Singleton church, the organisation provided food to the Broke and Bulga regions affected by flooding.

Food pantry is a brilliant ministry that connects the local church with the community and meets the needs of people.
