Saddleback Food Pantry

Our community is currently facing difficult financial circumstances, and many people are unable to provide food for their families.  Saddleback Church’s Food Pantry was established in 2009 to help meet the needs of those struggling. The Food Pantry has helped hundreds of families by providing food and hope in difficult times. Many have even come to know Christ for the first time as they’ve sought help through the Food Pantry. There are several ways the jr. highers can help out!

What is PEACE?

PEACE is our strategy for missions at Saddleback Church. In Wildside, we believe that junior high students can make an IMPACT on our community and the globe for Jesus Christ! Check out ways to participate in LOCAL and GLOBAL PEACE opportunities.

Saddleback created PEACE to tackle the five global giants that the world faces today. Each letter in PEACE stands for the

  • EQUIP SERVENT LEADERS to address the global giant of Self-Centered Leadership.
  • ASSIST THE POOR to address the global giant of Poverty and Hunger.
  • CARE FOR THE SICK to address the global giant of Widespread Illnesses.
  • EDUCATE THE NEXT GENERATION to address the global giant of Illiteracy.
