If You Care About Making a Difference...
You will find social justice opportunities at Rincon. By feeding the hungry, participating in community events, contributing to disaster relief or standing up for equal rights of all people, regardless of age, education, financial status, gender or sexual orientation there is a place at Rincon for you to make a difference. For information about our Justice and Witness programs, contact Ginger Taylor or Kathe Padilla, Co-Chairs of the Justice and Witness Ministry Team.
Casa Maria Sandwich Preparation:
Every 4 weeks, we donarcher2@cox.netgather in the Fellowship Hall on Saturday morning to make approximately 1,600 sandwiches for the Casa Maria free soup kitchen. The sandwiches are delivered to the soup kitchen and the following Sunday, volunteers make and serve soup at the kitchen. This ministry has been supported by Rincon volunteers for many years and requires a number of volunteers for shopping, bread pick-up, Fellowship Hall set-up and clean-up, delivery to Casa Maria and soup making. New volunteers are always welcome. Contact the coordinator, Judy Hubbard to find out how you can help. |
Primavera Meal Prep: On the fourth Tuesday of each month Rincon volunteers prepare a meal in the Rincon kitchen for the Catalina House transition housing unit run by Primavera. The meal is delivered to Five Points by a volunteer in time for dinner.
