Good Samaritans
The Good Samaritans would like to be like angels delivering comfort food to the families and friends who haven’t taken the time to eat and take care of themselves during their time of loss. Our ministry participants prefer to stay anonymous and as invisible as possible so that families are not obligated to show appreciation, but can spend needed time with loved ones and fellow mourners. Our aim is for families to finally sit down and share a warm meal while reminiscing and sharing stories about those who are no longer with us.
