MEALS AND HOPE: FEEDING THE HUNGRY AND RECOVERING 365 DAYS A YEAR

JOIN US AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY.

Just as Jesus broke bread and changed lives, meals are an important part of the recovery and transformation process at Wayside Cross Ministries.

Join us in feeding hungry and hurting neighbors.

Developing relationships. Sharing life, and experiencing the blessings that only God provides. These things take place at most dinner tables. But a simple meal can open a doorway for the chronically homeless at our Elgin Wayside Center.

At our main campus in Aurora, meal preparation also provides an important opportunity to build teamwork, trust, and learn the spiritual value of serving our fellow man. That’s why each meal is prepared through the loving hands of people recovering in our program. Some nights they may even pick up a few professional kitchen skills from one of our community volunteers.

Both offer the opportunity for the church to live out the Gospel by pouring into each other’s lives. Join us.

Give. Share. Pray. Participate.

Note: Updating our commercial kitchen equipment for prep and training are critical to meeting the needs of the people we serve. Our goal is to provide one more avenue for long-term job opportunities.
