Located in the basement of the Cathedral, St Michael's Food Pantry provides non-perishable food items for our neighbors in need.

Parishioners are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item every time they come for worship.  

Our most-needed items are always bags of white rice, bags of beans, tuna fish, cereal, and canned meats.  

Volunteers to serve our clients on Tuesdays from 9:30am to 11:00am are always needed.  

Helena and Paul DeKeukelaere coordinate the Food Pantry:
