March 14: Dinner-On-The-Go: Volunteer Opportunity
Trinity Church volunteers provide "Dinner-on-the-Go" bagged lunches for The Gathering at Ascension Lutheran Church on 27th and Scott, offering evening meals for guests when no Saturday night meal sites are open.
Lunches are prepared on the Friday before the third Saturday each month. Currently, we assemble 150 meals—each with a PB&J sandwich, fruit, juice, homemade cookies, and a salty snack—though up to 250 guests are served weekly. The joyful process typically takes just 45 minutes!
We need your help! More volunteers make the work lighter and the experience even more rewarding.
More Preparation Dates:
April 18
May 16
June 20
(Note: Some dates fall on the second Friday due to how the calendar aligns with the third Saturday.)
Donations Needed:
Jif peanut butter
Squeezable jelly
Small salty snacks
Homemade cookies (packaged two per small bag)
Large brown lunch bags
