The Journey Ministry Pantry

Reaching People! Changing Lives!

Our Mission

At the Journey Ministry Pantry, our mission is to ensure no one in our community goes hungry by providing nutritious food with compassion and dignity. But our commitment goes beyond meals — we offer encouragement, hope, and a sense of belonging. We believe that once you visit you become family.

“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in…”
— Matthew 25:35

Join Us in Fighting Food Insecurity

The Journey Ministry Food Pantry is powered by the generosity of people like you. Every contribution—big or small—helps us serve families in need with dignity and care.

While we’re always grateful for any shelf-stable food, some items are especially impactful for us to keep stocked. By focusing on these, you’re helping us fill gaps that often go unmet. Attached is our graphic of our highest priority goods, some of which are hard for us to obtain ourselves. This graphic will stay updated so, if you are eager to help, you can make a difference.

Your support means more than food on a shelf—it means hope, security, and community for our neighbors.
