Rev. John Annable poses for a potrait. When speaking with Rev. John Annable, pastor at the University Baptist Church, he noted that the amount of food donations to the Good Samaritan Food Pantry has been down due to COVID-19. He stated, it has affected quite a bit in terms of the amount of food that we have to give away and the way that people have to get here and get the food that they need. Even though the food pantry has had a rough couple of months, they are still able to get the food stuffs from other Good Samaritan Food Pantries and bring them to Carbondale for the community to be able to participate in the drive-by food pantry. He also noted that since a lot of churches arent meeting in person right now, it is harder to find churches who are able to take their turn on a weekly basis and can donate food from their congregation. Just like how they were able to make it through in regards to the food pantry, Pastor Annable shares the positivity when looking at the church family as well as the community by stating, I think that the church will grow stronger as they deal with these sort of things because they will realize that they have to find ways to meet the needs of people in difficult times.
