Hospitality Ministries
Community Sunday Hosts
Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred. ~ Proverbs 15:17 NIV
The Community Sunday Hosts prepare coffee and donuts for our parish community fellowship after the morning liturgies on the second Sunday of each month during the program year. Fair Trade Coffee is served at these monthly gatherings. The hosts work together as a team to offer hospitality for the parish community by preparing and monitoring the supply of coffee, donuts, and milk – and, in summer months, lemonade and cookies. In addition, team members set up and clean up the room.
