Christian Resource Center

The Christian Resource Center of Rockport, Indiana exists to coordinate and connect Spencer County residents with resources leading to self-sufficiency.

Food Bank

We provide a food bank to help supply health, nutritious foods to those in need.  Working in conjunction with the Tri State Food Bank, we provide food to many Spencer County residents who might otherwise go hungry. Our local church & business community also blesses us by hosting food drives throughout the year.

Anyone wishing to pick up food from the food bank is asked to please bring a current ID and a piece of mail, with current address, that has been sent to you in the last five days.

Food Bank hours are Tuesday-Friday 8:30 am-12:00 noon.

If your group or organization would like to host a food drive to benefit our food bank please contact us at 812 649-4946.
