Bless Our Neighbors

Food insecurity is a common problem for families and individuals in our local community — and it has been worsened by COVID-19 and the disruption it has caused to schools, the economy, and more.

Our Mercy Team wants to help River Oaks do its part to respond to this challenge by hosting a food drive.

The team will distribute bags of food to residents in our community on Saturday, October 10th from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, as our supplies allow. But everyone is invited to pitch in to this effort by providing donations of non-perishable food items.

For the entire month of September, we will have a food collection box in the foyer of the church where you can drop off donations. If you are unable to attend worship due to COVID-related concerns, please contact the Mercy Team to make other arrangements.

Suggested donations

  • Granola Bars
  • Canned Tuna
  • Canned Chicken
  • Peanut Butter
  • Canned Fruit (any)
  • Canned Vegetables (any)
  • Soup (any)
  • Boxed Pasta 
  • Toothbrush
  • Toothpaste
  • Bar Soap

Thank you for your help in this effort to make a tangible impact on the community around River Oaks!

Swap Shop was canceled due to COVID … but we hope to be able to bless our community in other ways through this food drive!
