FOOD RESOURCES
This ministry was formed to help improve the lives of those in our local community by providing a warm welcome, a good meal and companionship. In this way we also carry out Pope Francis' message that "The Catholic Church must strip itself of all vanity, arrogance and pride, and humbly serve the poorest in society."
The meals are open to ALL people in the area, without regard to background, faith, age, or economic status.
We encourage volunteers to join us in serving dignity, companionship and a warm meal when they have opportunities to do so. Before serving our guests, volunteers are asked to:
• Sign the Divine Savior and Diocese of Sacramento – Parish Volunteer Agreement Form.
• Be fingerprinted.
• Complete the online, Diocese-sponsored, “Safe Haven/Environment” course.
• Those working as a Kitchen Volunteer are asked to complete the online, Food Handlers training and certificate course.
• Volunteers are asked to sign up for specific meal tasks for a given week of the month.
• Interested in volunteering? Contact Julie Rose, julierose9211@gmail.com
• All other inquiries. Contact our leadership team chairperson Marcus Arnold, mtcomponents1@gmail.com
