For students in East Fort Bend, summer means no school, where many rely on breakfast and lunch provided during the school year. However, during the summer months, the EFB Food Pantry provides additional food to families with children so they can have access to breakfast, lunch, and snacks at home.
As you leave church on June 2, you’ll find an empty grocery sack with a needs list attached, serving as a reminder to donate. Last year, we received 1,989 pounds of donations. Let’s surpass this number this year! Please place your donations in the collection bins located in the Gathering Hall or Covenant Hall from June 2 to June 16.
