Dining Hall
Interested in volunteering at the St. Francis Dining Hall?
Hot meals are served in the Dining Hall daily Mon-Fri at 5 pm, and on Sun at 3:30 PM. The Dining Hall is located in the lower level of the St. Francis Church.
The staff consists of two co-directors and a cook. Most of the other positions are held by volunteers. Many volunteers are those who stay to have a meal because they are either homeless, jobless, underemployed, or at a time in their lives when they are down and out.
