COMMUNITY  FOOD  MINISTRY

NCC partners with Agape Fellowship Church to provide a welcoming, judgment-free environment to our neighbors in Lycoming County facing food insecurity. This community outreach is held at our church in the lower level every second Thursday of the month. The hours are 3:30 to 5. We serve over 50 families.
➡ We partner with our local Central PA Food Bank.
➡ We have a dedicated volunteer team from community programs working together.
➡ We provide the community with meat/cheese/eggs (if available), breakfast items, and produce (if available). We also focus on free items and low-cost bulk items.
➡ We develop caring relationships with our regular consumers.
➡ Our friendly volunteers are ready to serve, listen, and pray!

NCC Backpack outreach provides nutritious, child-friendly food to over 100 Loyalsock Township Schick Elementary students who are food-insecure. Through this program, children can be assured they do not have to go hungry over the weekend. Our volunteer team packs and delivers a weekend backpack to each qualified child on each Friday, including 2 breakfasts and 2 lunches.

➡ We partner with our local PA Central
Food Bank.
➡ We partner with Giant Food stores.
➡ We provide a designated monthly food item collection from our congregation.

Pam Kranz was elected to serve in March 2025. Pam knew the moment she walked through the welcoming doors at Northway that she was meant to be there, having felt the tug of the Holy Spirit. She loves Pastor Bryce’s messages and enthusiasm! Pam runs our Community Pop-Up Pantry and the weekly Backpack Program, serves as a Sunday Morning Announcer, and is active in an E3 Small Group. She resides in Loyalsock with her son Ryan and their five dogs. Pam enjoys gardening, yard maintenance, home improvement projects, and home decorating.
