Thirty volunteers and 14 substitutes serve regular 2-hour shifts, 10-12 and 2-4 every weekday and 10-12 on the last two Saturdays of the month.
There are detailed directions for stocking and maintaining the food supplies, quality and safety rules, processing client visits, and food selection guidelines.
New volunteers are always needed to fill shifts and be substitutes.  Many hands make light work on Delivery Day.  If you would like to help, please call Ellen St. John 547-9653.

October is UMCC Food Pantry Month to provide non-perishable food and cash donations. There is a collection box in the back of the sanctuary.  Donations may also be delivered directly to the Food Pantry year around.

Angel Network
The Network is coordinated by Cooperstown Central School which deeply appreciates support by members and volunteers throughout the year.  Generous contributions of food, gift cards, clothing and Christmas gifts help meet special needs of school children and their families to make a difference in trouble lives.

When a pickle jar, peanut butter jar, Mason jar or whatever jar you have at hand is filled with your spare change each day, it becomes a Christmas Jar.  During the week before Christmas, the jar is given to the Angel Network and distributed anonymously to an individual/family with a special need.  
Christmas Jars was written by Jason F. Wright – a wonderful story that will make your heart happy!

At UMCC, donations are coordinated by Rena Lull.  Requests are announced in the Bulletin and newsletter.  

Ecumenical Council of Churches
The Cooperstown Ecumenical Council of Churches brings area churches together in visible Christian unity, common witness, and Christian service to people in need.  Participating churches include United Methodist Church of Cooperstown, First Baptist Church, First Presbyterian Church, St. Mary’s Lady of the Lake Roman Catholic Church, Christ Episcopal Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church.

The Council encourages support of the Cooperstown Food Pantry, Habitat for Humanity and Jail Ministry of Otsego County through work groups or by individuals.  Ecumenical worship services are held on Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Easter Sunrise, and Thanksgiving.  The Council conducts the Cooperstown Central School Baccalaureate service in June, and assists in the planning of Vacation Bible School and special relief projects. The Ecumenical Men’s Bible Study is held from 6-7 a.m. on Wednesdays at Christ Church Parish Hall, Fair Street.  Contact Fred Wyckoff if you would like to participate in the Study group
