Holy Family’s St. Elizabeth Meal Ministry: Serving with Love

What began as a once-a-month service has flourished into a weekly ministry, with Holy Family parishioners providing a warm meal every Monday for the 10 to 15 residents of the St. Elizabeth Residential Program. Each week, volunteers prepare an entrée, side dishes, and dessert, offering nourishment and comfort to women and children working toward a brighter future.

This ministry is a beautiful way for Holy Family families to share God’s love and extend His Kingdom to those in need—right here in New Albany.

"Monday dinners are a true blessing. Many residents come home feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and stressed as they work to build a better life for themselves and their children. But when they hear that volunteers are providing dinner, they smile. Their shoulders relax as one more burden is lifted from their day. These meals are more than food—they are a reminder that they are not alone, that people care, and that they are not forgotten."

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to serve, consider joining this ministry and help make a difference—one meal at a time.
