Happy 2 Year Anniversary to The Community Meal


On Thursday, May 19th, The Community Meal will celebrate it's 2 year anniversary at The Lutheran Church of the Atonement.
The Lutheran Church of the Atonement was where the first meal was held on May 20th, 2009. It was started as a result of the economy and a way to reach out to the community. To date, The Community Meal has served over 2,400 people and over 300 pounds of sauce!


We have continued to grow in attendance and serve many different variations of your normal home cooked pasta & sauce, salad, and bread. Some churches have made homemade meatballs while others have made fresh spring salads with fruit!
This meal will be a special event meant to be enjoyed by everyone in the community. We will be serving pasta & sauce, salad, bread, and dessert. We are very thankful to Panera, Jimmy Johns, Einsteins, Costco, and Superior Exhibits by Design, Inc. for all of their generous donations that they have given over the years.
