Do you enjoy cooking for others? We have a new ministry for you!
The Pavilion Church Meals Ministry Serving God through Serving Others
What is The Meals Ministry?
Through a team of wonderful volunteers, we provide meals to church members or community members in times of need.
How Does It Work?
We plan to meet at least once a month to cook up several meals. We then plan to freeze the meals to have available as needed. Additionally, we plan to support emergency needs for meals. The meals ministry coordinator can be made aware of a need, either through a direct request for help or through referral by someone within the church. Food may be pulled out of the freezer and delivered to someone, or Volunteers are then contacted and asked to help provide a meal (home cooked or purchased) and deliver it to the recipient’s home.
Who Do We Serve?
We would like to use this ministry to encourage or support people who might be having difficulties.
(Surgery, Hospitalization, Sickness, Injury, Stress, Family Problem, Birth of Baby, Financial Crisis, Death)
How Can I Help?
The meals ministry is an excellent way to meet other people from church and make a difference in someone’s life. Meals DO NOT always have to be homemade. The purpose is to help someone in need by providing a helping hand in meal preparation, not to dazzle anyone with your culinary skills. In times of need, a friendly face and a meal is a true gift.
How can I get involved???
Volunteer to cook – You can come every month or just once in awhile to our cooking night to help us prepare food.
Volunteer to deliver – You can be one of the people who deliver food to someone who may need it.
Volunteer to be on the phone list – You can be someone we call when we have an emergency (death in the family, etc.) and need food cooked or purchased and brought in on quick notice.
Make a donation – The need may arise to have food ordered and delivered to someone and you can donate money to go to that need.
