Good Samaritan Ministries

Souper Bowl 2025

Now through February 9, Good Samaritan Ministries is collecting cans of soup and other canned goods for the food pantry. Donations can be dropped off in the green bin in the main entryway. Thank you for helping those in need!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: Good Samaritan Ministries is in need of volunteers to sort donated clothing on Tuesday afternoons between 1:00-3:00pm. If you are interested in helping, please contact the Good Sam office at 224-801-8359, and someone will contact you. Many hands make light work!

UPDATE: You may have noticed the donation trailer was closed last fall due to construction to move the food pantry to the first floor, The donation trailer is now open for donations of GENTLY USED CLOTHING ONLY. We no longer have space for general household items.

We are grateful to the Properties Committee for their hard work of removing walls, new lighting, and coordinating the installation of new flooring. Watch the Sunday announcements for the scheduling of a Sunday morning open house to visit the annex and see the new pantry.
