Recurring Family Volunteering Opportunities
2nd Sundays, 4pm to 6pm: Oasis Dinners at Plymouth Church
Our Kitchen Ministry team invites FUS members to volunteer at our regular Second Sunday Oasis Dinner held at Plymouth Church (Franklin and Nicollet) on the second Sunday of every month. Volunteers from FUS and St. Mark’s Episcopal arrive at 4:00 p.m. and help distribute food, clothing and personal care items, before descending to the dining area and helping serve dinner to around 85 guests. The presence of children and families adds so much to the evening as we practice ‘radical hospitality’ in the broader community under the flag of First Unitarian Society.
