We exist to allow our church body to serve God, fellow members, and our community through the distribution of food to families in need. We demonstrate Christian love and respect and providing opportunities to share Christ with those we serve.
Our Location
Address: 379 Mobil Avenue, Camarillo, CA 93010
(We are located in the strip mall across from Calvary Nexus)
Receiving Food/Items:
Food distribution is every Friday from 1-5pm. If it's your first time or you haven't been here in a while, come between 1-5pm and let a volunteer know. They will help you get registered and you will receive food. You do not need to bring anything.
Food Donations:
• Donations can be dropped off at our food pantry on Fridays before 12pm or on Sundays in the food pantry bin in the church lobby.
• Donations must be unopened and unexpired. While we understand food may still be edible past its expiration date, we risk losing our license with the USDA and must toss the items.
• In order to alleviate the transportation process on our volunteer team, we ask to refrain from midweek drop offs at the church. We are thankful and grateful for your generosity and understanding!
Volunteering:
• If you are interested in volunteering at the pantry, please contact Meredith below.
