Volunteer Opportunities

Peace Food Shelf

Peace collects and distributes bags of food to those in need in our congregation and community.   You will need identification the first time to receive food monthly.   The food shelf is open Monday – Thursdays, 9am to noon.  Most of the food is contributed by Peace members, although some is collected by area schools and the Boy Scouts.

 

 

Peace Meal

Peace Lutheran Church serves a tasty and friendly dinner for the community and our congregation from 5:00-6:00pm on Wednesdays. Please note that peanut products may be served.

Anyone who wants to make a freewill donation to cover the cost of their meal is welcome to do so, but it isn’t necessary.

If you are interested in volunteering to help prep or serve the meal please call Julie in the church office, 763 757-4459.

 

 

Holiday Food Baskets

Peace provides a week’s worth of food, plus a full holiday meal for families in need in our community and our congregation at Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.  A family member will need to pick up their food basket on the specified date.

 

Meals on Wheels

Volunteers from Peace deliver hot meals to shut-ins in the community. Peace drives every nine weeks and has to have 12 drivers every day that week.
