St. James’ has two teams that provide, prepare and serve dinner to the homeless residents of Sunshine Village on Brown Road in Fremont. Sunshine Village is part of Abode services to the homeless. The team that serves the third Saturday on even months is in need of more members. We meet at the shelter at 3:30 PM to prepare and cook the food while enjoying each other’s company. We serve dinner to the residents at 5:45 PM. After the residents are served, our group eats together and then puts away any leftover food. We are usually done by 7:00 PM. The residents clean up the dishes and pans. Each person contributes $10.00 towards the purchase of food. We take turns buying food and choosing the menu. We welcome singles, couples, and families with children 13 years or older. This is an opportunity for high school students to obtain service hours. Please contact Lynn Locher if you are interested.
