“[F]or I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….”  Matthew 25:35

About Us

 The St. Gabriel’s Food Shuttle Ministry provides a daily food rescue and delivery service for the needy of McKinney.  To accomplish this mission, our team provides an organizational structure to pick up food at grocery stores, restaurants, and other locations for various community groups, including the Samaritan Inn, Old Settler’s Recreation Center (after-school and summer programs), McKinney Senior Recreation Center (a congregate meal site for Meals on Wheels serving seniors on a fixed income), the McKinney Little Free Pantry drop-off location, and Lawson Early Childhood School (Food 4 Kids program).

Thanks to our dedicated drivers, St. Gabriel’s Food Shuttle has collected and distributed tons of food to the needy since 1998.

 All You Need To Be A Driver or Substitute Driver

• one hour per week
• a vehicle (it does not have to be a large SUV),
• a driver’s license and safe driving skills,
• a little instruction about food care, and
• a willingness to help provide a steady stream of food to those in need, including after-school snacks, meat, produce, dairy, baked goods, and other non-perishable items.

If you wonder if this activity is worth the effort, your answer will come as you watch the faces of recipients light up with smiles when you carry in food that you collected less than fifteen minutes earlier.
Please join us!
