Community Outreach Ministries

Due to the freezing weather today and tonight, the food pantry will be closed Saturday morning. We will reopen on Tuesday.

Thank you to the Polk County Missouri Sheriff's Office for their donation of $410 to COM today! Their donation will help support local families in Polk County facing poverty. To make your own donation, check out www.bolivarcom.org/donate

The store will only be open Thursday and Friday this week, but we are working hard to bring you some great updates!

Thankfully this winter has been fairly mild so far, however, we do have many individuals experiencing homelessness in our community. To help out in a small way, COM's lobby will be open to folks as a warming center from 9-4 on weekdays that are not expected to reach above 35 degrees for the high. We also encourage local churches and other groups to consider offering similar help to our community members in need.

You can save money on groceries by purchasing produce when it’s in season rather than out of season (it will taste better too). Read more in this article: https://www.thepennyhoarder.com/save-mo/produce-in-season/
