VALUES
Mission Kitchen Outreach Ministry joyfully serves as Christ’s hands. We believe:
- After one’s body and soul are nourished, one can begin to look to the future for a change and a path forward.
- One hungry person is too many, and no one is turned away regardless of faith, age, gender, gender identity, ethnicity, or national origin.
- Sharing a meal is the cornerstone of community and hope.
- Fellowship and food are fundamental to life and community.
- A caring community with no judgment creates the condition for change.
- In the dignity of all people
- Responding compassionately to spiritual, physical, and emotional needs
- Promoting church community involvement and support.
