With the current pandemic, hundreds of families, elders and individuals receive food each week through direct delivery and drive through pick up in accordance with strict CDC and Commonwealth of Massachusetts pandemic health guidelines. During this time, our chapel has not been available for services, and with the continual increase in need, the Food Pantry is using all of the chapel, with food pr
oducts separated for delivery package assembly in the chapel pews, foyer and around the altar. Clients order food online during the day Wednesday and through Noon on Thursday. Distribution is on Fridays (except on major holidays). Place your order here: https://www.newburyfoodpantry.org/get-food
Delivery is available for those who do not have transportation or who are immune compromised. Deliveries are made between 10 am and 1pm on Fridays. For pickup orders, a volunteer will call you after you place your order in order to tell you what time you should arrive at the church to pick up your order. Pickups take place between 2:45 and 5 pm. When you arrive, display your name on a piece of paper and wait in the car while we retrieve and load your groceries into your trunk. If you don’t have internet to place an order or if you have other questions, please call us at (978) 358-1077. Due to the volume of need at this time, we currently only have capacity to serve the residents of Byfield, Newbury, Newburyport, Georgetown, Ipswich, West Newbury, Rowley and Salisbury and Plum Island.
