MealCare

Hearts that love, hands that care

Our hearts go out to individuals and families overwhelmed by daily routines when there is an extended illness, hospitalization, or period of grieving. MealCare will help provide meals for you and your family during your time of need. We are ready to prepare meals that will suit your dietary constraints at your discretion. Allow your FOLC family to help you bear your burden.

How to get started

The services of MealCare can be obtained by contacting Penny Scheid. Once the need is made known, Penny will call the family or person needing help. Together they will decide:

• How often meals are needed
• How long they are needed
• The number of people to be fed
• Any dietary restrictions

Before the day’s end. Penny will send out a special e-mail to the church family with arequest for others to help with preparing meals. The church office and pastors are then informed that meals have been started and a request for help in meal preparation is put into the weekly newsletter. Meals are coordinated on a calendar to prevent doubling up on deliveries. Those that wish to help, can contact Penny by phone, e-mail, or at church on Sunday. She will coordinate meal delivery and give suggestions for meals. Often meals can begin the next day.
