Panaghia's Pantry

Thank You from Ecuador

A Year End Update from Ecuador and our Panaghia's Pantry Team

We delivered 125 food kits to close out our 2021 deliveries with two vehicles, extra helpers, and many happy families!
In total for 2021 we portioned, bagged and distributed approximately 38,150 pounds of food! 
We delivered 4,505 regular food kits and 133 emergency kits for a total of 4,638 food kits.

With your help we were able to purchase and deliver Christmas gifts for 45 children.

When families tell us they have not eaten for a day or two and that Panaghia’s Pantry answered prayers by coming when they did to bring nourishment, that is what you are doing for them!

The sight of a mother and her children running down a hill when they hear we are in their village because our vehicle cannot get to them is truly something to see.


The faces of the elderly who look so tired and have stories to tell or the children who are happy to see us.


The houses with multiple families living together so they can survive, in some cases up to 20 people in one very small bamboo house.


This is where your caring, generous gifts and kindness is going. 


We look forward to 2022 with your help, prayers and God's guidance and blessings to keep us strong, healthy and able to continue!


On behalf of all the Panaghia’s Pantry team here in Ecuador we want to thank all of you for your love, prayers and generosity in blessing those in need here.
The families who receive are so grateful and continually ask God's blessings for all who contribute and make Panaghia’s Pantry possible!
May you all have a blessed, healthy and very happy 2022, God Bless!

Love in Christ,
Yota and Vasili
