God's Storehouse
The primary ministry we currently support, God's Storehouse is to help people in need our immediate community (i.e. Wayne, Bradner, West Millgrove, Risingsun, and the Lakota Ministerial area). This help may in the form of food or for a utility assist.
If it is for a utility assist, God's Storehouse will only help once within a one-year period if individuals have a shutoff notice. They can help up to $150 by sending a check to the utility company. If the need is for food, they are able to help several times a year.
God's Storehouse also makes Easter and Christmas food baskets to help those in need. These baskets are larger quantities and are above and beyond the above assistance. Between 60 and 80 of these baskets are made at Easter and Christmastime.
The approximate needs at any one time are listed below. God's Storehouse purchases perishable items needed for the food baskets.
- laundry soap
- cleaning suppllies, especially antibacterial soap
- pork & beans/baked beans
- pasta/spaghetti sauce
- toilet paper
- canned fruit
- canned soup
- ramen noodles
- kidney beans
- jello/pudding
- instant potatoes
Volunteers are always needed and appreciated. If you are interested in joining the organization, you may call 419-288-2114.
