OPCC Food Pantry
One Tuesday evening and one Saturday morning each month OPCC offers a food pantry to those in need. Through donations made by our community, neighbors, OPCC friends and family, and purchases (at a reduced price) from Harvesters Community Food Network our food pantry gives a helping hand to those in need. While the availability of food is always a little different, each time it is offered, OPCC offers significant help with some basic needs for those struggling with food insecurity.

Guidelines for the OPCC Food Pantry
- Each client must sign in with their last name, zip code, phone number (if there is one), number of adults, seniors, and children in their household.
- This is only to helps us know how many people we are serving, and in which parts of town they live. We use this information to be more efficient and far-reaching in our services.
- Only 1 person per household can pick up food, no matter how many in the house
- Guidelines for income are 300% of federal poverty level, or on disability, or unemployed, or recent medical catastrophe without medical insurance.
- No utility bill or proof of income is required. We ask for the above simply for information gathering, to know who we are serving and who is needing help.
If you are interested in donating food to our food pantry, or interested in helping with distribution during one of the above dates, please contact our church office and let them know of your interest. They will be able to direct you to our Food Pantry Coordinator.
