-
Sack Lunches - (Appropriate for all ages) A group of about 6-8 meet from 8-9 am on Service Sabbath and make sack lunches that are taken to the Community Kitchen to hand out at lunch.
-

Various Activities - (Appropriate for all ages) A group of 12-14 meet from 10:00 - 12:00 inside the Community Kitchen to assist with various projects. Such projects include sorting food, preparing meal bags, decorating areas of the center for visitors, etc. These projects vary from month-to-month.
This ministry involves assisting with various needs of the Chattanooga Food Bank (2009 Curtain Pole Rd, Chattanooga, TN 37406) to include warehouse help, food sorting and packing and occasional administrative assistance. Our church group will typically handle the shift from 8 am to 11 am on either the first or second Sabbath of each month (but please check the sign up times as this is subject to change). This ministry requires a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 24 volunteers. Volunteers must be at least 12 years old, and all volunteers between the ages of 12-15 must be accompanied by an adult and complete a permission form.
