First Community
Kitchen |
|
|
A unique outreach
ministry of First
United Methodist
Church
The First Community
Kitchen serves a
free lunch on
Monday, Tuesday and
Thursday at 12 noon.
The lunch is
prepared by
volunteers with
love, and
friendship.
Volunteers welcome
the guests, prepare
the lunch, serve the
lunch, visit with
the guests and clean
up the kitchen and
dining area after
lunch, The
experience of those
who come to enjoy
the meal is one of
fellowship and
affirmation.
Volunteers are
always needed to
help prepare and
serve the lunches.

The First Community
Kitchen was the
dream of a Disciple
II class member. He
inspired the class
and together they
kept pushing for
their dream until
the Hunger Ministry
Task Force was
formed and they
worked out the
details. First
Community Kitchen
served its first
lunch on February 5,
1996. They served
111 people the first
10 weeks they were
in operation. They
now average 60-90
meals per day
(Monday, Tuesday,
Thursday).
Christ calls us to
reach out to all who
are in need. It is
not up to us to
determine if a
person is worthy of
receiving care, only
to know that when we
serve others we are
serving the Christ.

opportunities
