Friendship Baptist Church Blessing Box and Food Pantry
A Short Note from Doris and Karen:
We want to thank you all for your great response to our Food Pantry Special Project for August. While there is always a need for food, we sometimes forget that personal items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoos, soaps, etc. and other personal hygiene items are needed – so we appreciate your donations!
There is a New “Desperate Needs List” for September/October. Check it out and do what you can to support others when they need it. Don’t forget, along with our “Lil Blessing Box”, we have our main Food Pantry for families who need food and other resources on a larger scale. If you know of a family, let us know or have them call the church office @804-276-5803. All calls will be returned promptly to set up a time and date to assist you.
God Bless you all – Thank you for all you do and all you do is enough!!!!
Regarding our “Perishable Foods Ministry” – we appreciate the food that is being donated for our cold and frozen foods.
As a R E M I N D E R:
We accept cold and frozen foods
We cannot accept any opened packages or home canned foods - it will be thrown away if that is the case
We can accept fresh vegetables and fruit
Any donations should be placed in the Food Pantry Refrigerator/Freezer
We ask you to let Karen or Doris know when you put food in the refrigerator/freezer
God Bless you for all you do to support others in need. You make God smile!!
“And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” Hebrews 13:16

Lil' Blessing Pantry - Our food pantry sits on church property and is located next the community board. Anyone accessing the pantry by vehicle would park in the church parking lot and walk up to it. This pantry is for anyone in need during these difficult times. The idea of this pantry is to "Take what you need and Give what you can."
