Food Pantry

Brice United Methodist Church Food Pantry offers hope for the hungry. We are an "all volunteer" ministry.

Food pantry is open on the 1st - 4th Saturdays of the month from 9-11:30am

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’” Matthew 25:40

How can you help?
Brice Food Pantry offers three ways to be a part of our ministry:

Volunteer - We need servers, packers, registration workers, and general helpers to stock shelves and take groceries to client’s cars.
Email Volunteer Coordinator
Donate Food - See a sale at the grocery store? Buy a few extra cans of fruit or vegetables, or dry goods such as cereal or pasta, and bring them to the food pantry on Saturday morning.
Donate Financially - We are a partner agency of the Mid-Ohio Food Collective, https://mofc.org , which gives us greater purchasing power. You can make your dollars go further by giving a monetary gift to the church and designating it for the food pantry. All donations are tax-exempt.

Brice United Methodist Church is located on the far-east side of Columbus and serves a diverse community. It is the mission of our Feeding Ministry to honor God by providing good nutritious food and prepared meals while maintaining human dignity that will nourish our clients and help them to reach their full potential.

You’ll find us at the corner of Brice Road and Refugee Road.

How do I get food?

On Saturday at 8:15 am we begin giving out numbers. We ask that you line up politely and please tell us your first name to receive a number - this helps us to make sure everyone is treated fairly.

At 9:00 am we begin calling a few numbers at a time, when we call your number please bring you identification and come inside. We will register each person/family and then give you a cart so you may select the food you need.

Each week we give out approximately 50 numbers and serve about 20 numbers per hour. If we no longer have a number for you when you arrive, we may ask you to come back around 11:00 am to see we can serve you.
