The Father’s Heart Partnership
Resurrection Parish has been partnering with The Father’s Heart Shelter in Oregon City to provide over 300 meals a month- a hot breakfast served by us on the street, a to-go sack lunch, and a hot meal served at the shelter. Thank you for your interest in our ministry, we would not be able to provide these meals without YOUR help. If you are interested or have any questions please feel free to contact Alyce Oltmans and Lauren Hart via email at rcp.fathersheart@gmail.com
More detail is below on exactly how our ministry supports the shelter in Oregon City. If you see something of interest to you, please let us know – we are always looking for help and talent.
1. Saturday Breakfast: parishioners prepare breakfast (at home) while other parishioners volunteer to serve the meal. Supporting activities include bag decorating, breakfast muffin baking, breakfast burrito making, or donations of fruit or other items like socks and water.
2. Hot Meal: a small group of parishioners prepare a hot meal consisting of an entree, side and dessert that is served by the TFH shelter on the 4th Wednesday of every month.
3. Sack lunch: a small group of parishioners prepare sack lunches at the church on the 4th Wednesday of the month that are delivered with the hot meal. Visitors of the shelter take the lunches with them as nourishment for later in the day.
4. Delivery: one or two people are needed on the 4th Wednesday of the month to pick up sack lunches and the hot meal and deliver them to the shelter.
