Outreach to those on the Margins
(Food Pantry and Snack Food Pantry)
St. Agnes has a long history of caring for our fellow brothers and sisters on the streets. We have for many years given out snack bags weekly and grocery bags monthly for those in need. We continue to give out the snack bags but only on Thursdays when we have the Food Pantry from 1:30pm - 3:00pm because of the pandemic. But everyone is welcome to come for a food bag or a snack bag if you have nowhere to cook.
In spring of 2018 we started a new joint venture with St. Ignatius Parish and the Food Pantry of San Francisco/ Marin where people from San Francisco can come and shop in the back of St. Agnes Church for their groceries once a week on Thursdays
(1:30 pm - 3:00 pm). During the pandemic however, we have had to change procedures and we pre-package the bags of groceries for people to pick up. Everyone is welcome to come and receive a bag. We are blessed that we have so many volunteers from both St. Agnes and St. Ignatius to help in this ministry.
If you would like to volunteer at the Food Pantry on Thursday's and you are under 65 years old and not in a high-risk category, please contact Marco Matute at Marco@SaintAgnesSF.org. We are not taking food donations at this time, but possibly in the future when the pandemic is over.
