TLC Food Pantry
The vision of TLC is to unite and mobilize the members of local churches to reach out to the hungry and hurting. We believe that it is the heart of God to love people not only in word, but also in deed. We now have an opportunity to demonstrate our faith by investing our time and energy into our community. The foundational scripture for TLC is Micah 6:8, He has shown you, O man, what is good and what the Lord requires of you but to do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
TLC, which is an acronym that stands for The Local Church, currently operates as a food pantry and is open Monday thru Friday from 10am - 1pm. Each day a different local church manages the pantry with a designated coordinator. These coordinators, along with the teams that work with them, are all volunteers. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer in this ministry, then please contact the administration offices for further details.
