The
Community Kitchen
The
very heart of Stewpot is the noon meal its staff and volunteers
serve each day of the year. This meal serves as the center of
each day as well as the heart of the Stewpot philosophy. Rich
and poor, black and white … all God's children come together
over a nourishing meal. More than 120 people a day are physically
and spiritually fed in the Community Kitchen and 50 meals are
delivered to shut-ins in the area. Volunteers are always needed
to lend a hand in the Stewpot Community Kitchen.

- Anyone
is welcome to eat the Stewpot noon meal - no questions asked.

60,000 meals are served each year in the Community Kitchen.

Volunteering
Volunteers
in the Community Kitchen work as a team to make the plates for
the Meals on Wheels program as well as the plates for everyone
in the dining room. Volunteers serve the plates and drinks to
everyone who has come to Stewpot for the noon meal. Approximately
10 volunteers are needed each day of the week to keep this rewarding
ministry going. Interested volunteers should contact Tara Lindsey
at tlindsey@stewpot.org
or 601.353.2759.
