Are you or someone you know struggling to put enough food on the table? If so, we want to remind you that the Anoka County Foodshelf (www.acbcfoodshelf.com) offers fresh produce, meat, dairy, eggs, bread, and canned items. They accept both walk-ins and call-ahead appointments. Address: 2615 9th Avenue North in Anoka. Phone number: 763-422-0046.  Please scroll down for a list of local food shelf resources.

Grace has a small emergency food shelf (May All Be Fed Foodshelf) providing three bags of non-perishable food items. Volunteers donate food, stock shelves, and pre-bag groceries to support this ongoing ministry.

Grace’s Food Shelf Hours are by appointment only 9:00am-  3:00pm Monday-Thursday, and closed on Fridays. 

Contact: email Kris Miller or call the church office at (763) 421-6520.
