Reopening the St. Paul’s Food Pantry

We are thrilled to announce that Emmaus House is partnering with St. Paul's Episcopal Church to reopen the St. Paul's Food Pantry following a seven-year hiatus.

In addition to our current food pantry operations, which serve 75 families weekly, beginning this fall, we will be launching a mobile food pantry at St. Paul, which will provide fresh produce, protein, and canned goods to families in need every month.

Combining Emmaus House's operational expertise with St. Paul's dedicated volunteer base, this partnership will serve approximately 120-140 families each distribution day.

"This partnership multiplies our collective impact," said David-Lee Mattison, Emmaus House Chief Program Officer. "By combining our knowledge, skills, and passion, we're creating a model for sustainable community collaboration."

“As a church, our faith is most visible when we engage with the practical needs of our community,” said a representative of St. Paul’s. “We’re grateful to Emmaus House for helping us care for and nourish our neighbors in need.”

Your continued support makes initiatives like this possible. Together, we're not just addressing hunger—we're building bridges between communities and demonstrating how faith organizations can work together to serve our neighbors with dignity and compassion.
