SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) changes at the state and federal levels have reduced benefits for many families in Missouri. These reductions mean greater reliance on local food pantries, congregations, and community partnerships.

  • Fast Facts – Missouri Food Insecurity

  • Nearly 1 in 8 Missourians struggle with food insecurity.

  • Rural counties face higher rates than urban areas.

  • Households with children and seniors are most affected.

Understanding the SNAP Transition

Jesus said, “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,

I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me,

I was in prison and you came to visit me.” – Matthew 25:35–36

Grounded in our baptism and united in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we gather each year to strengthen bonds of affection, deepen our communion, and equip one another for faithful service.

 

The Ministry Fair and Eucharist on November 15 is open to everyone! ALL are invited—clergy, lay leaders, families, children, youth, and neighbors.
