Ruby's Pantry

First Thursday of Each Month, 5:00-6:30p

Grace is a distribution site for  Ruby’s Pantry, a ministry to distribute food to those in our community. Receive an abundance of groceries for a $25 donation. All households are welcome to participate! No income or residency requirement.

Caring Tree

Caring Tree is no longer accepting applications.

Has your family ever experienced the pain of financial uncertainty? Have you ever wondered where your next payments for housing, utilities, or food are coming from?

These questions can shake a family to the foundation. The Caring Tree ministry helps families going through transitional times during the Christmas season. Consider the generous impact it would make to share God’s abundance with another family.
