On Sunday, January 6th a group of six volunteers from Christ the King served dinner to forty-five people at Bozeman Community Café, a cooperative hunger program run by Gallatin Valley Food Bank and area churches.
The café is located in the old Frontier Pies Restaurant at 302 North 7th in Bozeman. Customers are greeted at the door by a host. Once seated they are greeted by a server, who takes their beverage order and informs them of the meal choices available that evening. Once the order was taken by the server, the “scoopers” promptly plated the meal requested. The six volunteers, after all the customers were served, cleaned the restaurant in preparation for service the following day.
One of our strongest social outreach ministries is hunger relief. As a congregation we actively support the food bank and the ELCA World Hunger Appeal through a monthly offering. We also collect canned soup and boxed cereal for the food bank throughout the year.
Helping to staff Community Café as it serves hungry residents of Gallatin County is a natural fit to what we already do.
Christ the King is scheduled to serve at Bozeman Community Café on Sunday, February 3rd from 4:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. We already have three caring adult volunteers. We need four more people to help serve. If you are interested in volunteering, please see Pastor Grant
