Currently we are in need of additional volunteers to contribute meal items and/or to prepare/deliver these meals. Joining a team means a 3 month commitment per year. Each member is asked to donate one or more items on the meal ingredient list per month. This can be placed in the St. E's basement kitchen anytime the week of the scheduled meal (before 6pm on Friday). There are also opportunities to be the chef & delivery person as well if this is of interest. We hope and pray that we are able to have more hands to help in this in the upcoming months. Thank you for your consideration of sharing in this beautiful and much needed ministry! Contact office@seasp.org to join the team!
