Life's Daily Bread
Feed my sheep - John 21:17
Our Mission
To impact the lives of others by sharing food first locally then globally.
What We Provide
Food is a basic need that's necessary for survival. Our pantry doesn't share just food, but love, encouragement, and hope.
In the years since we opened Life's Daily
Bread at Life Church Ministries, our team of nineteen volunteers have become intertwined in the Brooklyn community and we’ve worked hard to build trust and respect with our neighbors.
Preparation & Serve
The food that we share is gathered on Saturday mornings from two retail stores and stored in our pantry room for distribution on Tuesday evenings. We serve an average of 60 people weekly during the winter months and an average of 80 people weekly during warmer months. People of various economic status visit our pantry and they range from the homeless or senior citizens to working single parents struggling to make ends meet.
Our Commitment
Rather than pre-bagging food, our pantry is set up in a format that allows our visitors to choose food items that make sense for them and their families. A variety of foods including canned, boxed, frozen meat, bread, pastries and vegetables are displayed on tables for visitors to choose from.

​
Our homeless neighbors hold a special place in our hearts, so we give them extra special attention. The table that we prepare for our homeless is full of personal hygiene items and ready-to-eat foods like fresh fruit, canned soup, bread, luncheon meat, protein bars, tuna and bottled water.
​
Each week, we work hard to meet people where they are in their economic status by sharing food to help supplement a basic need. We greet everyone who visits our pantry with a smile, hello and a Christ-like attitude to show them what Jesus looks like in human form. We want their experience to be pleasant, non-judgmental and memorable!
