The Conejo Valley Meal Program

He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.  Proverbs 22:9

“Many hands make light work,” as the saying goes and the Shelter Meal Program is a perfect example of this belief put into action.  Every month, volunteers from MVPC come together to provide a delicious, nourishing meal for our community's less fortunate.  We must be prepared with enough food for at least 40 men, women and children, and with thanks to all our wonderful volunteers, this is easily accomplished!

For those of you who may not have heard the news yet, there have been some changes; our host church has changed from the Seventh Day Adventist church to Emmanuel Presbyterian Church, which is located at 588 Camino Manzanas.  Please be sure to note this new location if you participate in this program.

If you are not a regular participant . . .  now is a perfect time to get involved! This is one of the easiest ways to serve that we have at MVPC.  All you need to do is either prepare a dish or pick something up at the store and drop it off at the host church (or send it with another MVPC member).  It's that simple!

We serve the homeless and needy on the first Thursday of every month but if you're not ready for a once a month commitment, that's OK; we'll be happy to accept your help any month that's convenient for you.  (I promise there will be no harassing if you skip a month here and there.)
