Weekly Food Collection

Mt. Gilead provides the opportunity to collect food items on a weekly basis for Churches in Mission to help stock their pantry throughout the year. A certain number of bags will be available each week with a list attached indicating what food items need to be purchased for that week. The list will change throughout the year based on the needs of the Churches in Mission pantry. If you would like to help, please stop in at the collection corner in the lobby, take a bag, fill it with items on the list, and return the bag to the same location the following Sunday morning.

Current food collection shopping list:
