St. Luke's Food Drive

Saturday, April 3 - during Communion Pick Up

10 - 11am St. Luke's Parking Lot

St. Luke's will collect food for the Food Bank again on Saturday, April 3. This is a simple and important way to make sure that people in our community are cared for and fed. You may donate in one of two ways:

Leave food in the church parking lot when you pick up communion Saturday the 3rd between 10 and 11am.
Sign up for communion delivery on April 3 and leave your donation outside your front door for your communion driver to pick up.

The best non-perishable foods to donate:

canned beans
dry beans
peanut butter, or other nut butters
rolled oats
canned fruit in juice, not in light or heavy syrup
canned vegetables, with no or low-sodium
low-sodium soups w/protein
canned tuna in water
canned chicken
brown rice
quinoa
nuts, unsalted
seeds, unsalted
shelf stable milk and milk substitutes
whole grain pasta

unsweetened apple sauce
whole grain, low-sugar cold cereals
olive or canola oil
canned tomatoes
dried fruits, no sugar added
honey

Additional tips:

Canned goods with pop-top lids are better than canned goods that require a can opener.
Avoid foods packaged in glass.
Do not donate foods that are past the expiration date.

Because of you, someone will eat today.
