Please think about serving our leaders in a practical way!!
Each Friday the leaders gather at Rick and Amy's house for a mandatory weekly training in their basement, but beforehand they all gather upstairs and share a meal together. This time allows for leaders to connect, laugh, and encourage each other. There is something about sitting and sharing a meal together that fosters a family element. We need your help to serve these leaders and continue to give the leaders this time! Feeding a group this size is easier than it sounds (especially if you ask people to help you!), several pans of pasta, a few crockpots of different soups, a taco bar or a sandwich bar. You could always do pizza too! Keeping it simple is key!

- Don't worry about plates, utensils, or drinks!
In the fall, we took a break from providing a meal to the leaders and they miss it very much and miss that time to connect as well! We asked a few leaders about the meal aspect of Friday night leadership and this is what they said:
"Since we're always on the go Friday evenings with students, it's nice to come to leadership and not have to worry about making a meal after work."
"I love getting to share a meal with this community each week! It makes us all feel more like family!"
"Going straight from class to leadership knowing I don't have to worry about buying dinner and that there's a meal waiting for me, provides a lot of peace."
"It's so sweet to actually pause and sit and enjoy a meal with other people on the same mission. It makes me feel so encouraged."
"Talking with all my friends over a meal is awesome, something I look forward to each week."
Thanks so much for considering providing a meal! If you have any questions or want more information, please don't hesitate to reach out!
Help feed our great volunteer leaders! Every Friday our volunteers gather in the "basement" for a mandatory training time. Rick and Amy's house (1806 Waverly Dr, Florence, KY 41042) has been the volunteer leader training place for 27 years now. From 515-6pm they eat together (all 100 of them!). Feed...
