The Shepherd’s Food Pantry Team has done extensive research over the last few months to open a food pantry for Bella Vista Lutheran Church. The paperwork for the NWA Food Bank has been submitted and the certification of our site has been completed. Publicity is working to inform the community of our exciting undertaking. We will be open from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. every Friday. The Shepherd's Food Pantry will not be open when schools are closed due to inclement weather.
The members of The Shepherd’s Food Pantry Team are:
Kay Gaudian-Director
Dorothy Jones-Spiritual Advisor
Diana Wickboldt-Food Coordinator
Lora Rollings-Accountant
Claudia Jorgensen-Publicity
Our mission statement reads as follows:
The mission of The Shepherd’s Food Pantry is to provide the love and compassion of Jesus Christ by providing food to the hungry and needy.
This is accomplished by identifying needs. The services are provided without discrimination.
It is our hope that those who received food will be strengthened in body and soul.
There is a sign-up sheet for helpers, please support the food shelf with some of your time and prayers. Training sessions for volunteers will be announced at a later date.
This is an exciting time for the church and for all the members, as we reach out to our Community.
