Sponsor a Community Dinner
The Welcome Ministry
invites you to help us serve our homeless and hungry neighbors at one of our
community dinners. Every second
Saturday of the month, the Welcome Ministry feeds between 90 and 140 of our
homeless and hungry neighbors a meal. The Welcome Ministry relies on the support of the community to provide
these meals.
Volunteering at a
community meal has been an enjoyable experience for many organizations and
businesses such as JP Morgan and Starbucks. Here is how you and your company can become involved in this service
opportunity. The Welcome Ministry works
hard to develop relationships with our homeless and hungry friends, which means
that our community dinners are very different from other programs. For example, our guests never wait in line
and are all served in their seats. The
benefit of our relationship building and our unique serving style is that our
guests are very courteous, grateful and well behaved.

5.

improvement

Grace
and peace,
