SUMMARY:Pender's Mini Free Pantry
DESCRIPTION:Pender’s Mini Food Pantry: A Small Space with a Big Mission\nThe Pender Mini Food Pantry is officially open and ready to serve our community! This little structure—built as an Eagle Scout Project by one of Pender’s Boy Scouts—is a beautiful example of service\, compassion\, and creativity. \nAt first glance\, it looks a lot like a Little Free Library\, but instead of books\, it’s stocked with nonperishable food for anyone in need. It’s a simple yet powerful way to share kindness and nourishment in our neighborhood. \n📍 Location:\nYou’ll find the pantry at 12301 Alder Woods Drive\, Fairfax\, VA 22033—coming from Route 50\, it’s the second driveway on the left into Pender\, right beside the sidewalk. \n🥫 What’s Inside:\nAs of this writing\, the pantry is filled with a wide variety of items\, including: \n\nCanned tuna\, chicken\, chili\, and soup\nBroth\, vegetables\, pumpkin\, and apple sauce\nShelf-stable milk\, peach slices\, mandarin oranges\, and individual fruit packs\nJello\, pudding cups\, mac and cheese servings\, and mashed potatoes\nCoffee\, oatmeal\, ketchup\, gravy packets\, and cooking oil\n\nIt’s truly a community effort—and every contribution helps keep it going. \n💜 How to Help:\nAnyone is welcome to take what they need or to donate food items to keep the pantry stocked. When you give\, please remember our guiding principle: \nGive with dignity. Donate items you’d feel comfortable using yourself. \n

SUMMARY:Caring Hands
DESCRIPTION:“Crafted in fellowship\, prayed over in faith\, given in love.” \nWe’re delighted to revive our Caring Hands Ministry as an in-person gathering once again! We meet at 10:00 AM on the second Saturday of each month in the Pender UMC Library. \nThis is a relaxed\, welcoming time to knit\, crochet\, talk\, and share as we work together. Our handmade items—prayer shawls\, baby blankets\, lap blankets\, scarves\, hats\, slippers and care bags—are lovingly prayed over and then distributed to those in need\, offering comfort\, warmth\, and a tangible reminder of God’s care. \nWhether you’re an experienced crafter\, just learning\, or simply want to stop by for conversation and fellowship\, you are welcome. You don’t need to be actively working on a project to join us—come sit\, chat\, and enjoy the community. \nTogether\, we create more than stitches—we create connections\, prayers\, and gifts of love. \n🧵 All are welcome. Come as you are.
