The Downtown Community Dinners is a shared ministry, hosted at Wellington Square United Church and supported by many faith communities in Burlington. We are thankful for the ongoing support from community partners such as Partnership West, Refresh Foods, local grocery stores and the Poacher Restaurant.
We are looking for volunteers who have a heart for serving and would like to come out and help prepare, serve and clean up on Friday nights. The meal preparation begins at 4:00, the dinner is served at 6:00 pm and the clean up starts with dishes shortly after.
Fridays 4 – 8 pm – Two time slots: 4-6pm and 6-8pm
Location: WSUC

The Downtown Community Dinners started in June 2009 as an initiative for the men of Wellington Square to become more active in serving and connecting. Dinners have been served every other Friday, and offer a meal and fellowship with the door wide open to everyone in our community.
Starting February 5th, the meals will be expanding beyond a men’s only team, serving meals every Friday, still here at Wellington Square. With a more regular schedule, more people in our community will look to these dinners as a place to eat a healthy meal and to join in fellowship.
Our biggest need is for volunteers with a big serving heart who are able to commit once a month to running a dinner as the main leader of a small group of volunteers. Even if you have never done large volume cooking or serving before, you will be walked through this amazing experience and taught how and what is needed to make the evening a success. You would need to be available from about 4pm to 8pm. All food and supplies will be provided for you.
