St. Luke’s Missions Highlight: Meals on Wheels

What’s for dinner? That is a common question at most homes. The weekly routine of meal planning, shopping, preparing the meal, clean up… and the cycle continues week to week. Exhausting!
 
What a gift to have an organization that coordinates meals for many in our community. There are no qualifications or age restrictions. Anyone living in Bloomington or Eden Prairie can have meals delivered. 

Meals On Wheels is a non-profit organization that delivers low-cost, hot, nutritious meals during the noon hour in the cities of Bloomington and Eden Prairie. Clients are elderly, ill or disabled. Meals are delivered by volunteers whose friendly visit plays a vital role in allowing clients to stay independent and in their homes.

St. Luke’s is on a rotating schedule with deliveries in our Bloomington area. Much thanks to member Ruth Behrendt for her many years of service. We are grateful that Gina Griffith has stepped up to fill Ruth’s shoes.
 
But it takes more than one. Thank you to the many members who deliver meals. There is room for more to join this ministry.
 
An individual who can drive and has an hour of time, this is a great opportunity to serve. Bring a friend along if you wish!
 
Meal pick up is at St. Stephen’s Church between 10:45-11:00 am. Deliver meals to 5-8 individuals in about an hours time.
