Funeral Dinners:  
The Funeral Dinner Ministry is a gift to grieving families. Volunteers help in various ways by creating a caring atmosphere, providing food, setting up, serving, cleaning tables, or doing dishes. Those who have benefitted from this ministry, have spoken of how meaningful it is to have this meal together with loved ones and friends without having to do the planning, cooking and serving. This is truly a ministry of compassion.
