Angel Food: Get About $60 Worth Of Groceries For $30

September 10, 2010

As the cost of food continues to rise, there is a program available locally that can save more than half of the cost of groceries. And, perhaps best of all, everyone qualifies, no strings attached. It’s called Angel Food Ministries, a program that provides food relief to more than a half million families a month across the nation.

It’s a simple concept…pay $31 for a box of food worth about $60. There are no applications; everyone qualifies regardless of family status or income. The process is simple too…just stop by one of the designated local locations, pay the $30 and return on the designated pickup day to receive the box of food. They even accept food stamps. Or, the food can be ordered online at angelfoodministries.com.

This months “Signature Box” contains a variety of items — including split chicken breasts, been and cheese burritos, hamburger patties, boneless pork chops and more more. (See the complete items at the bottom of this page.)

In the North Escambia area, orders can be placed online or through Allen Memorial United Methodist Church or Pine Forest Assembly of God  in Cantonment, New Life Baptist Church in Century or the Poarch Band of Creek Indians. Click here for a complete list of locations in the North Escambia area.

At Allen Memorial United Methodist Church in Cantonment, orders can be placed in person on Saturday, September 11 from 10:30-11:30 or September 13-14 from 3-4 p.m. Click here for the complete Angel Food menu and ordering information from Allen Memorial or call (850) 968-6213. Allen Memorial even serves a complimentary breakfast to all guests on distribution day.

To order online for pickup at any of the North Escambia area sites, visit www.angelfoodministries.com. When ordering online, enter the code “Just4me5″ to save five percent on the Just 4 Me After School Box or enter the code “Blessed5″ to save five percent off the Bountiful Blessing Box.

    While I have not done this for the last couple months, I did for a year and a half before that.

    The food is good, the variety is good, and the folks at Allen Memorial are a credit to the Lord they serve… very kind and always looking to go the extra mile to bless the people who show up on Saturdays to pick up their box.

    Give it a shot, if not for yourself then pick up a box for a neighbor. :)
