Volunteer Opportunities
At LCM there are many ways to give back to the community.
Our Daily Bread (ODB)
Our Daily Bread was started 15 years ago to serve guests who had food insecurity. We serve every Sunday during the year with 12 teams preparing home cooked meals. Some our guests are without a home and some have food insecurity.
The twelve (12) teams serving the meals each Sunday come from a variety of organizations. There are 8 teams from churches, and 4 teams from the community; a book group, a community team from the Silver Valley, a Fiber Arts group, and a group interested in serving people in need.
It is our hope we can offer a warm meal and acceptance, offering love and hospitality that comes from God.
All are welcome at the table on Sunday.
2024 Serving Schedule
Blessing Box
If you are in need visit our Blessing Box, in the parking lot. It is a “Little Free Pantry”, which provides nonperishable food (like cereal, canned soup/pasta, granola bars) as well as hygiene items (including shampoo, soap, toothbrushes/toothpaste and toilet paper) to anyone who needs them.
Take what you need, leave what you can. If you would like to add items to the box, feel free, we could always use a helping hand to keep it stocked for our neighbors in need.
Ecumenical Kitchen
Ecumenical kitchen was started by the 1st Presbyterian Church in downtown CDA, years and years ago. They have recruited many local churches to sign up to provide meals to low income and homeless people every Thursday. LCM serves lunch on a rotating bases 6 times a year. Meals are served at the 1st Presbyterian Church.
Quilters
Lutheran World relief distributed its first quilts in 1945 to families in war-torn Europe following the Second World War. Within a decade, the ministry was reaching around the globe to villages far removed from the world’s attention. Today, an average of 300,000 quilts are lovingly given worldwide each year.
The Quilting Group of LCM creates a tangible, lasting bond between the people who lovingly assemble them, and our neighbors around the world, who receive quilts in their greatest times of need.
Together they produced 96 quilts this year.
Quilters meet every Monday at 9:30am
