Community Meal
The Community Meal, once known as the Soup Kitchen, was the first ministry of Lubbock Impact. Opening in October 2007, the Soup Kitchen served a crowd of approximately 50; now, the Community Meal serves an average of 175-200 people each week.
Every Wednesday at 5:30 pm, all are welcome to eat a nourishing meal at Lubbock Impact. Participants are provided delicious meals and desserts in a family-style atmosphere.
While the food is the touchpoint, the true goal of the evening is to build relationships. Our hope is that all who join us for dinner will feel welcomed into the Lubbock Impact family. Enjoying a hot meal together often serves as the gateway to sharing other transformative resources and ministries Lubbock Impact offers.
The success of the Community Meal is a testament to the generous support and dedication of the community. Table hosts, servers, kitchen crew, and cleanup crew who make this happen are made up of local organizations, churches, businesses, athletic teams, individuals, and families.
Ways you can help at the Community Meal:
Donate funds for purchasing food and supplies needed for our weekly meals
Sponsor a Community Meal (i.e, our Christmas meal, Thanksgiving meal, Easter Meal. The average cost is $1,500 a meal.)
Donate decorations. Every week, we like to decorate our tables for our guests. If you have a set of twenty centerpieces for our tables, we would love to put them to good use. Or if you have at least 250 seasonally themed paper napkins or plates, we would love to use them here.
Volunteer to help at the Community Meal.
