For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. St. Andrews is one of about thirty churches that are members of the Brazos Church Pantry. We support the pantry with donations of money, donations of food, and volunteers who work at the Pantry. The Pantry is an emergency and supplemental food source for the poor of Brazos County.
Clients can receive an approximately one week supply of groceries once every three months.
In addition, the elderly poor or terminally ill can receive food once a month. This past year the pantry provided food to over 9000 people. There is a box for food donations in the narthex, or they may be left at the office. Each month two food items are featured and are listed in the Angler and Sunday pew sheets, but any non-perishable items are welcome. And donations of frozen meat and of garden produce are also much appreciated.
