“Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.”  1 Peter 4:10

Free hot dinners served with hospitality and dignity on the third and fifth Thursday of each month from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

In order to protect the health and safety of our guests and volunteers we will be providing “Take & Go” box dinners this week.  We will forgo our time of gathering and fellowship. Our meal is served outside, and social distancing protocols are observed.

WHEN:  Every third and fifth Thursday from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Please do not arrive any earlier than 4:30 p.m., at which time you may gather in our outdoor courtyard to rest and visit until our meal is served at 5:30 p.m.

WHERE:  King of Glory Lutheran Church, 10280 Slater Avenue, Fountain Valley, CA 92708 (at the corner of Slater and Los Alamos, across the street from Fountain Valley City Hall)

We have plenty of free parking, and we are wheelchair accessible.  In addition to a free meal, we also have a “Blessings Table” where you may select from a variety of free household and toiletry items.

Please tell your friends.  Everyone is welcome!  If you can’t make it this time, please join us at our next King’s Kitchen.
