MINISTRY OF HOSPITALITY

Churches in our Deanery are being invited to share a joint outreach opportunity sponsored by Grace Church, Massapequa.

It’s no secret that warmth, hospitality and a personal touch are the key ingredients to any good gathering, and that’s the idea behind Grace Church’s “Dining Side by Side” outreach to senior citizens. Members of Grace Church will prepare and cook dinner, and local Episcopal parishes are invited to take part in serving the food and eating with guests at the table.

The next event will be Sunday, Oct. 8 at 4 p.m. at 530 Clocks Blvd., Massapequa. If you are interested in joining volunteers from St Margaret’s, please let me know.

Fr. Walter Hillebrand, who invited us to share this ministry, is a fellow Third-Order Franciscan and Rector of Grace Church.

“Truly, I say to you,
as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,
you did it to me.” Matthew 25:40 (ESV)
