Mountainside Supports the Local Community

Mountainside Church is consistently able to support our community in many ways. We are a strong supporter of the Fellowship Food Pantry.

Offsetting hunger whether through the food pantry of one of our other initiatives, we are involved!

We took our Mountainside donation to the Food Pantry in February 2025. DeDee Phillips has only been the Director for about 6 months, so she had no idea of how much our donation would be.

When we backed up to the door to unload, she was waiting with this little rolling tray. She was quite surprised when I opened up the back end of my SUV, and she said, "Oh wow, this certainly won't work!" She was definitely surprised at the amount of food we had and was so grateful for our Mountainside donation.

She gave us a short tour of the pantry and explained how it works. It is quite an operation, taking about 35 volunteers to hand out the boxes of food twice a month.
