In November of 2018, FUPC began a mission outreach project to prepare meals for our local homeless shelter. Every Friday afternoon, a team of volunteers gathers to prepare a hot meal which is served that same evening at the Samaritan House shelter. Teams are comprised of 3 people who have completed ANSI Basic Food Handler Safety training and certification. The meals are prepared from pre-selected recipes, and include a dessert. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer for this project please contact Denice Spicer, project coordinator.
Food Handler Training & Certification
Volunteers should plan to complete their certification by the end of their first month of work with the Meal Teams. Training can be completed at:
