Food Prep & Serving

At Messiah, building a beloved community through building bridges that help us connect as human beings is a big part of our mission and ministry. We have various informal gatherings around communal meals through which we try to make such connections. Preparing and serving food is a big part of Messiah's ministries.  Lunch is served every Sunday, at 12:15 PM, after our 11:00 AM Bridge Service and every Tuesday at 12:00 PM after our Community Bible Study (CBS).  On Wednesday evening food is served at 6:00 PM for the Koinonia group and other Wednesday evening groups that are scheduled to meet.  The 3rd Saturday of the month we have a Men's breakfast and  Women's breakfast (9:00 AM). The groups then meet separately for fellowship and discussions.  Help is needed with food preparation (no cooking skills required) and cleaning up for the events.  This is a good way to meet some very nice people.  Call our church (612-871-8831) or email us (office@messiahmpls.org) to volunteer or obtain additional information.

Youth & Family

Youth and Family volunteer opportunities are many and varied.  Coaching basketball, tutoring, teaching Sunday school, providing transportation to youth events, mentoring, to mention a few.  Give Tom a call (612-871-8831) or email him (tom@messiahmpls.org) to volunteer or find out additional information.

Food Pantry

Our Food Pantry is scheduled the 2nd Friday and the 4th Saturday of each month (exception for 4th Saturday when Christmas, Thanksgiving or Easter when the distribution occurs on the Saturday just before the holiday).  Help is needed from 8:00 AM until noon.  Duties include setting out food items, bagging groceries, assisting people from the community who come, preparing & serving food, and helping with clean up (bilingual skills would be a great help if anyone would let us know). Come and be with us as often as you like for this mutually enriching experience of community-building. Once here, you will realize that you will want to come back.
