The Storehouse for Jesus is a non-profit organization operated by a group of local churches to meet the needs of those who are having difficult times.  While we recognize there are many things we personally can't provide, we have many resources that can help with many needs.  We provide food, household goods, and lightly used clothing.  The Pantry is funded by personal donations from our church families both financial and clothing.

The Pantry is a member of Mid-Ohio Food Bank where we purchase most of our food.  The Pataskala and Reynoldsburg Kroger Stores provide bread and pastries when available.  The Pataskala Church of the Nazarene provides the needed space for the Pantry.
