HERE's A little background on WHY we close SATURDAYs

---

Nature's Pantry has observed Saturday as a day of rest since it's founding in 1986. In the Bible, "God spoke these words to Moses regarding the 4th Commandment, “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant."  Exodus 20:8-10 

We believe taking one day off to rest each week is one of God's provisions for us. Maybe He knew we'd tend to overdo it, striving to get it all done seven days per week. Jesus said, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath." So we believe He made it for us to rest and recharge, not as a burden or hardship. It's a day to connect with God and with one another, and it's a symbol of our trust in His mercy and provision. 

Being closed on Saturday can certainly seem like a blunder from a business perspective. Nevertheless, we love God and want to trust and obey Him in this way. We believe there are more important things in life than money, and we find God always provides for all our needs. 

Thank you for your patience with us and many years of loving support. May God bless you and yours!
