Community Meal

Every other month volunteers prepare and serve a meal to the hungry and sometimes homeless adults and children who gather at United Baptist Church on Spring Street in Newport. Additional volunteers are always welcome to join in the set-up, serving, and clean up. If you can’t attend you may serve by baking goodies for desert or providing fruit. Bananas are the most popular. Dates and specific instructions are announced several weeks before the evening of the dinner.

Our Next Community Meal will be on Wednesday, October 27 at 4 PM.
