From the Shepherding Committee


Like to cook?  Want to share a meal?

There is a full-size freezer in the large storage closet to the left of the kitchen in the CEB, just waiting to be filled with meals that can be taken to those in need, those who are sick and unable to cook, or those who are shut-in and can use a helping hand with dinner.

Through a grant from Thrivent Financial, Zion was able to order containers, lids and labels to be used by anyone who would like to prepare a meal for the freezer.  There are a few different sizes of foil containers for larger and smaller meals, as well as some with dividers for an entree and side dishes.  There are also plastic containers and lids for soups or sauces.  All we need is for you to pick them up from the shelf in the closet, make a meal or two, label them, and bring them back to the freezer. 

The labels should have the following information:
· Name of the dish
· List of the ingredients
· Instructions for heating
· The date the meal was made

Then, what we need is for you to utilize this caring ministry by taking meals to people who you believe could benefit from them.  As simple as it seems, a warm meal can make a big difference.  Please help us reach out and connect with others through this ministry! 

If you have any questions, please contact Judy Formalarie or Jackie Snyder.
