Announcement: Kara Brown, Executive Director of the Center for Lay Ministries, informs us that in 2021, The CLM Food Pantry served an average of 35 families a day. In 2024 that number has doubled to 73 families daily. High food prices are especially devasting for those already suffering from food insecurity. Please continue to support the
CLM Food Pantry with donations to the red wagon located in the side
entrance. The top requested food is cereal!
