The Community Suppers are probably our most important community outreach mission each year. During the cold winter months these meals provide warm hospitality for our Island people in need of fellowship and good food. Community suppers are a non-budgeted Mission commitment supported entirely by donations of food, time and money from members, friends, meal guests and our Missions Board Fair Trade Project. To volunteer, please contact Marjorie Peirce at 508-221-0314 or mgpeirce@gmail.com.
