Food Pantries See Spike in Demand, Seek Donations

Three local food pantries responded: Lazarus House, in Wildwood, First United Methodist Church, in Court House, and the Gleaning Center, which is connected with Seashore Community Church of the Nazarene, in Erma.    Lazarus House  At Burk and Pacific avenues, Lazarus House is an ecumenical food pantry, where “all guests are greeted with a friendly smile, spirit of hospitality, and encouragement.”   Now, those friendly smiles are hidden behind masks. Yet, Director Frank Stone is pleased with the services they can provide, despite Covid.   “Up to two weeks ago, we let people inside,” Stone said, while sitting in the pantry’s office Dec. 17. Two volunteers tested positive for coronavirus, closing the pantry’s doors to the public. Clients can pick up items as volunteers bring bags outside. A comprehensive list, in English and Spanish, is given to each client.
