Join the Meal Ministry Team! ???
Looking for a simple, powerful way to serve others and show the love of Jesus in action? Consider joining our Meal Ministry Team! This team blesses families in our church who are recovering from surgeries, welcoming new babies, or going through a tough time due to illness by providing a few home-cooked—or store-bought meals. Why is this important? A warm meal during a challenging time brings comfort, shows care, and reminds people they are not alone. It’s a small act that makes a big impact—and it’s something anyone can do.
If you sign up, you’ll receive a Meal Train link whenever there’s a need, so you can choose a date to deliver a meal and get all the details about the family.
Not a cook? No problem! A rotisserie chicken and a few sides go a long way and are just as appreciated. Ready to be part of something meaningful?
?? Click here to join the Meal Ministry Team! For more details, talk to Pastor April. Let’s show love—one meal at a time. ??
