St. Philips Help Yourself Shelf food pantry’s Christmas box distribution is slated for 3:30-5:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 17. As well as items for side dishes, the boxes will include the choice of a $10 gift certificate to either Shaw’s or Hannaford toward the purchase of protein, or the selection of a limited number of turkeys, hams or pork loins. Dessert and drink options will also be available.
To preorder a box or for questions, call St. Philip’s Church at (207) 882-7184, leaving a brief message and a call back number, or visit facebook.com/HelpYourselfShelfFoodPantry or helpyourselfshelf.wordpress.com/.
Help Yourself Shelf will be open the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s, but instead of Thursdays, it will be open on 3:30-5:30 p.m. Wednesdays and returning to the usual Thursday distributions after that.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way.
