The members of this group of volunteers change each opportunity we have to serve! Approximately 8 times a year St. Andrew's commits to providing a group of 8 - 10 volunteers to serve the evening meal to the guests at the Rescue Mission. Our workers arrive at the Mission at 4:15 p.m., going into the reception door and reporting to the Rescue Mission personnel. They are directed from there and put into the cafeteria-style line to serve both hot and cold items to the guests dining that evening. The Rescue Mission provides vinyl gloves and St. Andrew's provides the aprons! The only thing our volunteers provide is a SMILE! Dinner is served by 6:15 p.m. and our job is done.
You can volunteer to minister as a member of this group by contacting John Hitchins.
The Rescue Mission is located at 402 4th Street SE, Roanoke, VA 24013. It is open 24 hours a day and offers many opportunities to volunteer. Call them directly for more information.
