Do you or someone you know need help with food, clothing or heating costs? Click here to find out who to contact

During the month of September, we are asking you to bring bags or boxes of stuffing, canned fruits, wide noodles, canned vegetables, sauerkraut, pie crust mix, cranberry sauce and canned pumpkin pie filling.  We donate these to the S. York County Pantry to help those in need,  The pantry always needs personal items like deodorant, bar soap, tooth paste and or tooth brushes, combs, hair brushes and toilet paper.

The people they serve (and many more) need the pantry's help more than ever.  If you are having a personal financial crisis, obviously you can't help the pantry, but we may be able to help you.  Call the pastor if you need help, and leave your number. 

The pantry serves the communities of Shrewsbury, New Freedom, Stewartstown, Loganville, Seven Valleys, Railroad, Glen Rock, Glenville, Jacobus, New Park, and Spring Grove..

The Southern York County Pantry is a co-op effort of 30+ churches. For 30+ years it has provided needs for area families. In 2022, over 1200 shoppers came through the pantry and/or deliveries were made.

Congregations support the ministry in any of the following ways:

* donations of food items and brown paper bags & clear plastic newspaper bags (to keep cleansers separate from food stuff).

* donations of cash for bulk food or Energy Fund may be made directly to the pantry by mailing your check to:

SYC Pantry
P.O.Box #8
Shrewsbury, PA 17361

* contacting and arranging for deliveries

* does your school, class, club, church or civic organization wish to hold a food drive to benefit the S York County Pantry??  Contact the webmaster for help.

If you would like to make a monetary donation to this ministry, you can do so even if you are not a member of Emanuel Church. Please mail your check to the Shrewsbury P.O. Box above or to Emanuel Church (address is on the HOME page of this website).  Please make your check payable to: SYC Pantry.
