Easter Outreach 2021
We need volunteers to help us deliver to families in need this Easter. We hope families along the Treasure Coast use the food to share a family meal this Easter.
The meal bags will be delivered directly to families’ homes. We do not require families to sign vouchers, wait in line or carry a food box. We ask each family to enjoy a family meal in their homes, using their recipes with the food ingredients included in the delivered meal bags. We always include table-talk questions to get the table conversation started. We also include mealtime prayers for the families so they can begin to pray together.
Dates & Times: Friday March 26th at 1:00pm, Saturday, March 27th at 7:30am
Location: Trinity Lutheran Church 2011 S 13th St, Fort Pierce, FL 34950
