A few have asked what we go through for a meal in groceries, etc.
We are very fortunate have 4-5 families that always pitch in to assist in putting together the meals, including planning, purchasing, picking up and cooking.
We have other members and volunteers that will assist when they are available and that includes setting of the tables and placemats before the meal, assisting in cutting and serving the desserts (a full time job) and helping in the kitchen.
We also have students volunteering to get their hours for school and on one occasion the student’s mother was in the kitchen washing dishes wanting to help.
