The Lighthouse Food Pantry began June 2 distributing food to the needy EVERY Saturday from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the rear of the church, located off of Winchester Road at 38435 Innovation Court in Murrieta.

The food ministry leaders have been listening to the people coming to the pantry and have prayed to God for guidance and have decided to change things to make the pantry more available to those in need and also to help more people be blessed by being able to volunteer.

The pantry has been feeding about 200 families monthly and expects that number to double. The food pantry is funded solely through the members of a very small church.
