The Central Illinois Food Bank will pay a visit to Taylorville this Saturday. Krista Lisser of the Food Bank says while the need for the service has decreased slightly in the State as a whole, it has increased slightly in Christian County:

Over 13% of Christian County residents are described as “food insecure”, meaning they don't know where their next meal is coming from. The mobile pantry will be at Taylorville United Methodist Church which is located at 200 South Walnut. Again it will be this Saturday and will open at 9:30am. Bring a box or laundry basket to carry your goods home. The food is distributed on a first come first serve basis.
