AAHot Meals Program
Calling for New Teams

Christ Lutheran Church preparing hot meals  
Since 1988, FACETS has been providing a hot meal to individuals living in poverty every night of the week. On any given night, we provide up to 2 meals each to an average of 40 individuals. This program is made possible through a strong partnership with Faith Communities and families throughout Fairfax County. Many teams have been serving since the start of the program! We need the assistance of additional congregations, families, clubs, or civic organizations to take on a day or more to serve those in need in our community. Being a Hot Meals team is fun and rewarding and a great way to be a significant part of the community. If you and your congregation, friends, or colleagues are able to coordinate a hot meal delivery a few times a year, then we are looking for you! It's easy to get started and there a few dates that need coverage.  The current needs are listed below:
  • 4th Thursdays of even months
  • 2nd Thursdays of each month
  • 1st Sunday evening each month
Sign up today by contacting D'Ivonne Holman , Volunteer Manager.
