Feeding Program
The Feeding Program is an outreach project that we share with St. Matthias Episcopal church. Each church covers six months out of the year. One Saturday a month we gather to pack sack lunches for approximately 140 homeless people who are housed in shelters in Richmond. Lunches consist of a meat and cheese sandwich, condiment packets, a piece of fruit, a single serving bag of chips, and cookies. These lunches are prepared at church by volunteers then are delivered, by car, to the designated shelters by 2 or 3 volunteers. This is a very rewarding and meaningful experience for all ages and only takes an hour (or two, if you help deliver the lunches).
The next feeding program will take place Saturday, December 26th, at 9:00 AM in the Parish Hall. We will be packing 140 lunches for four homeless shelters. We also need volunteers to deliver the lunches. All ages are welcome! This is a wonderful opportunity to reach out to those less fortunate. There will be a sign-up sheet in the Parish Hall.
