Food and Friends Ministry

CLICK HERE TO SEE A LIST OF BUSINESSES AND PARTNERS THAT SUPPORT CHUMC’S FOOD AND FRIENDS MINISTRY!

Food and Friends Ministries is the sharing of a daily meal with our neighbors which is one of the ways Capitol Hill UMC works to be the heart of God in the neighborhood. Every morning we offer a meal to our neighbors, both housed and unhoused, and most of all we offer friendship for all who attend. The meals are offered in the relaxing atmosphere of our Parlor from 9-10am on the weekdays. On the weekends food and friendship is provided from 9-11am. Food and Friends offers a bit of dignity, order, relief from the weather, food, coffee, and, most of all, friendship – for all who attend.
