First Lutheran Food Pantry

06/01/2026

We have sincerely appreciated the Dows Legion generously allowing us to utilize their Sefton Center for our Dows Pop-up Pantry for nearly a year!! With the Dows Legion's leadership and support, we are moving the pop-up pantry to the First Lutheran Church in Dows due to ongoing elevator issues at the Sefton Center. Our next pop-up scheduled for June 9th will be at the Sefton Center; we will change to the First Lutheran Church on Tuesday, June 23rd from 5-6pm. Thank you to the First Lutheran Church for being willing to host us! Please message us with any questions-thank you!
