MEAL MINISTRY
Central's Meal Ministry provides meals for our families in times of need. We have a Meal Ministry Committee but our needs often surpass what our committee is able to provide. We welcome anyone who is willing to provide frozen meals. Some ideas of foods we need: savory casseroles (lasagna, chicken and wild rice, enchiladas, chicken spaghetti, ziti, poppy seed chicken, etc.), soups (vegetable, potato, broccoli and cheese, chili, etc.), homemade breads/rolls (sweet or savory), side dishes (potato casseroles, vegetable dishes/casseroles), and cakes/pies/desserts. Meals may be dropped off in the main kitchen deep freeze behind the serving line.
Notify Katie McDaniel and she will move your items to the Meal Ministry freezer.
