Learn about our food distribution day and how it works.

Food distribution is every Tuesday from 12-6 PM

Cars start lining up a few hours before we open. The line goes from the south end of the church and heads down the entry to Tyler Pipe.

Please DO NOT line up in the road. This will block moving traffic and is a safety issue to guests and the public. Please line up on the side of the road in the grass. Also, watch out for objects in the grass as some pipe lids are still in the grass and can cause damage to your vehicle or you could get stuck.

Watch for volunteers while entering the drive up area to receive your box. If you are driving a tall vehicle, or have items on top of your vehicle, please watch your height as the awning is low. If you are unsure if you can fit, please stay in line till you get to the front. Then please pull off the drive up to the left and we will serve you away from the drive through.

Make sure you have your case barcode ready either printed or on your phone screen when you pull up. If you do not have a barcode, we can look and see if you have a case on file from other locations that you might have visited.
