The Saint Bridget Feeding Ministries offer a variety of opportunities to help feed those in our community who need help. Please read the descriptions below and click on the area where you would like to help.  All questions should be directed to Jo Ellen Schneider, Director of Social Ministries, at jschneider@saintbridgetchurch.org or 804-525-7902.

LINK TO SALVATION ARMY - This ministry provides food for homeless adults on the first Tuesday of the month. Volunteers are needed to pick up food, cook and package it, and deliver it to St. Bridget's on Snowball Lane. Volunteer delivery drivers pick up food from St. Bridget's and transport it to the Salvation Army on Grace Street. Meals typically consist of Baked Ziti or Sloppy Joes.

LINK TO SAINT PETER'S DOOR -  Volunteers prepare lunch at Saint Peter Church for the downtown Richmond community in need. Lunch workers help prepare, serve, and clean from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Lunch captains coordinate lunch worker volunteer assignments. Lunch captains call the church coordinator to ensure the food needed is on site. If you would like to get involved, see the link for upcoming opportunities.

LINK TO LIBERATION VETERAN SERVICES - On the third Thursday of each month, this ministry prepares a three-course meal for roughly 40 men who live at the Liberation Veterans Homeless Shelter! Volunteer cooks will drop off 2-3 recipes in the cooler on Snowball Lane anytime before 4:00 P.M. This includes any volunteers who agree to cover sides, drinks, and dessert! All food is then picked up by a volunteer and taken to the LVS Shelter on Hull Street. Members of our volunteer Telephone Team are responsible for making sure all volunteers are on track for their scheduled volunteer times!

LINK TO ST. STEPHEN'S FOOD PANTRY - We have a partnership with our neighbor, St. Stephens for opportunities to volunteer at their Food Pantry on Mondays from 12:30-3:00 pm. The pantry operates similar to a grocery store allowing visitors to select foods that are most suitable for their households, restoring a measure of dignity while reducing food waste. Pick up and stocking volunteer roles may also be available. Please see the link for more information and to register to help with this ministry.
