Local Outreach

ST. ANDREW'S PANTRY

St. Andrew's Pantry is a local outreach to our community. We provide food and other necessities to help folks get back on their feet.

The Pantry continues to be well used and needed. Several people from our community come in to our church every Monday between 11:30-1pm looking for food and other necessary items. Average numbers are 35-50 people per week. Thank you to all those who have been bringing in food and money. If you haven't already, please think about contributing cereal (we repackage into smaller bags), pasta sauce, peanut butter, canned fruit and vegetables, hearty soups, crackers, beans, jam/honey, shampoo, unscented soap and deodorant, diapers, and feminine hygiene products.  We have also now expanded into some frozen food which is quite popular. Thanks for showing your love and care for the people of Owen Sound. It is greatly appreciated!
