BROWN BAG FOOD MINISTRY Our vision and mission is to serve the needs of the community through this ministry. Our Brown Bag Program was born in 2003 and it provides “manna” at a local, free food pantry. Our brown bags are distributed to the congregation once a month. The bag is labeled with a specific food item needed at the food pantry. During the month, the food item is returned in the brown bag and placed in food collection baskets. Pick up a brown bag today! For questions contact the church office.

GOODS & GRACE CLOSING
Pastor Tige, Pastor Scott and the Board of Directors of Goods and Grace have made the difficult decision to close the store on July 12, 2025. It was a great vision to provide significant savings on groceries for the ALICE population in our area. Unfortunately, the rising wholesale prices barely gave savings and the number of items we could secure couldn’t provide the variety of the retail stores in the area. Jesus taught in the parable of the talents (Matthew 10) that we are to be faithful stewards and servants with the resources He provides. These realities led the Board of Directors of Goods and Grace to determine that the cost of this ministry is resulting in diminishing results that do not serve our community in the way it needs to. Thank you to the volunteers and donors who gave their time and resources to serve the ALICE population of Central Florida. You have made an impact on the lives of many!
