Community Supper
The Community Supperserves a free meal each Wednesday evening to over 100 people-5000 meals a year-with many community members volunteering to serve and clean up alongside our own church members. The supper draws on middle school students from an after school program to help set up during the school year, gives volunteer and culinary arts training to high school students, and provides meeting space for a parent group run by the Family Center.
