Sunday Friendship Lunch is an outreach ministry that provides a hot meal for people who usually eat at the Open Door during the week or for anyone who needs a hot meal. Each Sunday, we serve 30 to 60 people between noon and 1:00 pm, and carryout meals are also available.

We plan menus and have food ready in the kitchen on Sunday mornings. Three or four volunteers work from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm to prepare, serve, and clean up afterward. Meals typically include a hot dish such as lasagna, scalloped potatoes with ham, or chicken and noodles; a vegetable; fruit; rolls; dessert; and beverages.

Since the program started in September 1989, it has provided over 32,000 meals and hundreds of carryouts on 950 Sundays. The Church and Community Work Area funds it, along with contributions from organizations and individuals.
