24-Hour Food Pantry

24-Hour Food Pantry

Elevated Church has a 24-hour food box located on 78th Avenue, just west of 43rd Street, on the south side of the church property near the sidewalk. This 24-hour food box is stocked with canned and boxed food items as well as personal hygiene items. It is continually replenished thanks to the generous donations the church receives from the community.

Our food box ministry is inspired by the teachings of Jesus, who emphasized the importance of caring for those in need. As stated in Matthew 25:40, 'Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' This ministry embodies the spirit of Acts 20:35, where we are reminded that it is more blessed to give than to receive, and Matthew 25:35, which speaks to providing for the hungry and the thirsty, and welcoming strangers.

We are committed to serving our community by ensuring that those in need have access to essential food and hygiene items at any time. Your generous contributions help us to continue this vital ministry, reflecting the love and compassion of Christ.
