1st & 3rd Tuesdays, 11am – 2pm

The Bethel food pantry exists to serve the physical hunger need in our community.  We know we can’t do it alone, so we are humbled to be part of a network of food pantry, meal kitchens, and organizations such as Meals on Wheels in Manatee County.  We strive to offer our services in a way that instills dignity and supports transformation by meeting both the physical and spiritual needs of those whom we come in contact.

Our pantry is open to serve the community at our campus on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of every month from 11am-2pm—doors open for registration at 10:30am. If you or someone you know is in need, please arrive within this timeframe and we will be happy to help you with questions and registration. Even though our pantry has two separate monthly service opportunities, due to the volume of our food pantry, individuals may only utilize the pantry once a month.

As You Arrive…

Our food pantry is located within our Ministry Center building located at the front of campus. As you arrive onto the campus, simply follow the signs to the Ministry Center entrance. Upon entering, you will be greeted to check-in and then instructed to have a seat in our waiting area. You will then be called according to the order in which you arrived.

Once your name is called, a pantry volunteer will walk you into the shopping area where you will have the opportunity to ‘shop’ and select your desired items. After your selection is completed, our workers will walk you and your groceries to your vehicle and will offer a short time of prayer.
