About this service
In the basement of the church (down the ramp on Fitzgerald Avenue), St. George's holds both a Food Pantry where people can pick up groceries (Tuesday & Thursday) and a Drop-In where people can get out of the rain, grab a coffee, and get to know other people.
The St. George's food pantry provides food for those in need. Over 1500 bags of food are handed out each year. 40% of clients only come once, but there has been a gradual increase over the past couple of years. There is also coffee and cookies each week, and many just come for a warm place and conversation with our dedicated volunteers. Prayer is also offered by request.
For the truly homeless we are a necessary refuge in unpleasant weather and can give two hours of comfort and conversation which are unlikely to be found elsewhere until a daytime shelter is available. We receive many thank-yous, God Bless You for your kindness and Prayers are said for St. Georges from clients.
When is it open?
SGUC - Food Pantry is open Tues & Thurs 9am - 11am.
