“Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours.” Teresa of Avila
In March 2020 at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, St. Anne's members quickly mobilized to create a food pantry to serve neighbors in need, especially those who lost their jobs and had no transportation for grocery shopping.
Canned goods, fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, and meat, were donated not only by St. Anne's members, but also several community organizations, including the Montgomery County Police and East Rivendell Farm.
We soon partnered with the Upcounty Food Hub and began purchasing food for distribution to 65 families every other week.
Our church continues to serve our community.
