Starting the pantry all simply began with me becoming good at couponing. I thought having a big stock pile was only for my family, but the Lord quickly changed my heart and assured me that it wasn’t. Within a week after the Lord spoke to me, I spoke with my Pastor of my new profound hobby. She uttered the same words the Lord spoke to me. I knew in that moment what the Lord was calling me to. I was so excited to began helping others in their time of need. As an adolescent, my family and I spent some time in a homeless shelter. Being able to give back to the community that once kept a roof over my head and food in my stomach has been an honor. We serve not only our community and surrounding areas, but also the Navajo Reservation. As we serve through the Pop-Up Pantry, our heart is to not only meet physical needs but spiritual needs as well. Our prayer is for people to experience God's love in every encounter through our Pop-Ups.

 Without God , everything we do wouldn't be possible. God has called us to make an impact. Our hearts desire is for us to continue to grow to see lives impacted. We are a group who loves God and loves people.

"For I was hungry, and you fed me...I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!" (Matthew 25:36-40)

At every location we visit, our goal is to distribute bags of food to families on a first-come, first-served basis. Our current goals for familiesin need:

• Local locations - 20 bags (approximately $700 to cover items)
• Navajo Reservation locations - 50 bags (approximately $1,600 to cover items)

*Below is a downloadable list of items we request for each bag. One bag feeds a family of 4-6.

Personal hygiene products are greatly needed by families who don't have the resources to purchase these necessities. We provide basic products for men, women, and children.

*Below is a downloadable list of specifically requested items.

Providing clothing for all ages, both male and female, has been a great benefit to those who are unable to purchase it. We offer gently used and new clothing to families and individuals in need.

*We accept clothing donations , which can be dropped off at Word of Life. We do not accept torn, worn-out, or dirty clothing of any kind.

Your generosity is changing lives! Thank you for your partnership and compassion. With your support, families navigating difficult seasons are receiving life's essentials; food on the table, supplies for their home, and hope for tomorrow. We're making a tangible impact together.
