Volunteer Opportunity:
LUNCHTIME MINISTRY
|
Share your time to assist the Lunchtime Ministry.
Lunchtime Ministry (LTM) was started in the 1970's by the people of St. Matthew Trinity to provide a warm meal, hospitality, and community for our neighbors who are homeless, marginally housed, or just hungry.
The mission is to provide our Hoboken neighbors with a warm meal, a compassionate community, and a peaceful place to spend the morning. We strive to be a place where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Volunteers will be asked to help prepare meal, set up the table, serve food, and clean the dishes and the general area.
