Reusable bags are more than welcome at the pantry! 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 Thursday, October 26, from 2-6 p.m. Beginning at 2:00, families arriving will be given a number, asked to wait in the sanctuary for their number to be called, and registered before being directed to the pantry for food. A volunteer will greet and escort them around the pantry, allowing them to make selections of their choosing. 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 provided by the USDA is available once a month to eligible families who fall below federally mandated guidelines. Families not able to attend the pantry may call the Church office at 878-5745 between 9:00 a.m. and noon today through Thursday to leave contact information so arrangements for delivery can be made. A follow-up call to complete registration will take place on Thursday. 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 2-6 p.m. (except for November and December when it is the 3rd Thursday). The next food pantry distribution will occur on Monday, November 13, from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

🚌 This week is National School Bus Safety Week! 🚌 School safety starts at the bus stop. Share these tips with your children: 🛑 Arrive at the bus stop five minutes early. 🛑 Stand five giant steps away from the curb. 🛑 Wait until the bus stops, the door opens, and the driver says it’s okay before stepping onto the bus. 🛑 Be sure the bus driver can always see you, and you can see the bus driver.
Addressing chronic absence is a key component of improving graduation rates, increasing academic achievement & giving young people a good chance for success in their adult life.
