Sharing Food and Fellowship at a Community Who Cares

Longing to build the community we seek

Longing to build the community we seek,

Instilled qualities of The One who is meek.

We rise slowly and boldly,

leaving the past behind, coldly.

For in the past we were so often lonely,

bemoaned memories of it all, we remember only.

Sharing a meal that is grown from the garden,

motley crew's manners we will pardon.

For all are welcome, mannerly or not,

the mentally stable or the mentally distraught.

For all are welcome, those near and far,

so that all may enjoy a snack from the snack bar.

Connection, conversation, and fulfillment,

purpose, praise and soulful reconcilement.
