Yellow Lake Food Distribution

"God's work.  Our hands."

As members of the ELCA, we are called to respond. We are a church that rolls up our sleeves and gets to work. We are very proud of our on-going commitment and support of our community ministries:

Our Food Distribution program  is a group of eight churches, including Yellow Lake Lutheran, that operate our community food bank program.

• Yellow Lake Lutheran Church Food Distribution sponsored by GPS (God's People Serving)
  • We distribute every third Thursday of the month
  • 100 percent of our donations go towards the food we distribute. There is no cost.
  • Distribution Locations, Connections in Webster
  • We are always looking for different organizations to volunteer for the distribution and set up. If interested contacts us for more information.
  • Any questions please call: Larry at 651-308-4852 or Debbie at 715-866-7065

• Total food distribution for the year ending December 31st, 2018: 7154 families helped, a total of 19,001 people.  We handed out 246.707 pounds of food.
