In March 2014, Catch the Fire Ministries began serving the community by providing a foodbank in partnership with Theodora’s Cheerful Givers.
The food is packaged in crates or bags and contains dry foods, vegetables, dairy foods, frozen foods and items such as quiches. Normally, one crate is provided per family.
Recipients must bring photo ID such as a Centre-link card and fill out our registration form to register.
Our normal operating hours are from 10am-2pm on Thursdays by an appointment made with Barb or Elizabeth by ringing 9703 1620. Depending on the level of need, recipients may come weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
The usual area we serve is those residing in the suburbs of Hallam, Hampton Park, Cranbourne or Berwick. The food is to be picked up from our church Foodbank premises at 30 Star Crescent, Hallam.
Catch the Fire Ministries is also planning to start a soup kitchen shortly.
