The Heavenly Food Pantry, located at the First Congregational Church on Main Street in Essex Junction, will be open to families residing in Essex, Essex Junction, and Westford on Monday, June 12, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Beginning at 5:30, families arriving will be given a number and asked to wait in the sanctuary for their number to be called. They will then be registered and guided to the Fellowship Hall, where a volunteer will escort them around the pantry while they make their food selections.
After food is gathered, it will be weighed (information for pantry use only) and another volunteer will bring the food to the family’s vehicle. Shopping carts will be made available for those within walking distance of the pantry. As usual, there are no income requirements to visit the food pantry and a variety of food is available to everyone; however, additional food is provided by the USDA to eligible families
who fall below federally mandated guidelines. This additional food is available to qualified families once per month. Families not able to attend the pantry may call the Church office at 878-5745 between 9:00 a.m. and noon today and Monday to leave contact information (name, address, number of people in the family, and phone number) so arrangements for delivery can be made. A follow-up call to complete registration will take place on Monday. Families are currently able to visit the pantry each time it is open on the 2nd Monday of the month from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and the 4th Thursday of the month from 2:00-6:00 p.m. The next food pantry distribution will occur on Thursday, June 22, from 2:00-6:00 p.m.

Over 4,000 schools in 23 countries participated this year and thousands of students voted to choose a winner. Students learned about the artists and where they were from, the lyrics, and what they meant, and generally gained an appreciation of both the language and the cultures of the Francophone world. 👏🎶 https://bit.ly/3WtOPBC #EWSD

The pantry asks for proof of residence for each household in the form of a current utility bill with a physical address listed. In lieu of this, families may provide current correspondence from a government agency or other official mail. Identification for each household member may consist of a driver’s license, hospital card, insurance card, school-issued ID, social security ID, or birth certificate. The Food Pantry requests that those visiting the pantry (as well as the volunteers) remain masked when the pantry is open for food distribution.
