During the Covid-19 pandemic, Eastminster has been supporting the ministry and mission of advent House by the giving of our mission dollars. During this time we have not been cooking and serving our monthly meal, but instead have been giving $400 each month to cover the costs of the meal. Instead of cooking, please consider giving a small amount each month to help support this meal. You can give online at this site by clicking “Give” and designating a donation to Advent House. You can also mail a check to Eastminster and put “Advent House” in the memo line.
As of the end of 2021, we are providing monthly lunch bags. Volunteers can provide food for the bags or show up on second Saturdays to help assemble the lunches.
==================================================
On the second Saturday of every month, Eastminster members gather at 9:45 a.m. to deliver meals to the Weekend Day Shelter at Advent House Ministries. Some members cook and some serve the meals.
Advent House is open every weekend of the year, serving more than 34,000 meals to more than 2,200 people. The Weekend Day Shelter is a community gathering place where needy families and individuals can stay all day, have good food and have access to community resource information.
Do you want to help?
You can be a cook or come serve.
