Grace Free Community Meal The Grace FCM is held the second Friday of each month. Some months the meal has both dine-in and take-out options, and some months are take-out only. Looking ahead to the rest of 2024, July, August and September meals will be take out only; October, November and December will be dine in and take out both.
On June 14 from 4:00 - 5:30 pm, the Macungie Minstrelaires and other volunteers served 225 meals of a hot dog with sauerkraut, macaroni salad, baked beans and watermelon.
On July 12 from 4:00 - 5:30 pm, Janet McAleer will be the host, and plans to serve pulled pork sandwiches with cheese, coleslaw, chips, and a brownie. If you can help bake, cook, package, hand out or clean up, please sign up at this SignUp Genius link: July FCM. Note, July's meal will be take-out only.
Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who help make this worthwhile ministry possible to continue to bring a little joy to our community. Remember Grace is the Place!

As people of faith, God calls us to help those whom Jesus called "the least of these." (Matthew 25:40) When Jesus fed the multitudes (the only miracle to appear in all four gospels), he didn't ask anyone to pay, to demonstrate worthiness, or even to prove their need. And as Christians - although we often come up short - we try to follow the way of Christ. That is why on the second Friday of each month, Grace hosts a Free Community Meal (FCM). At that time anyone and everyone is welcome to pick up a meal (or meals) and a friendly greeting. During this time of pandemic, the FCM is to-go and we ask that you please wear a mask when you come by. If you would like to know more about the Free Community Meal, or give a monetary donation, please email Pat Smack at smackpatricia@gmail.com, or call the church office.
