In the middle of a Queenstown winter, on successive Friday evenings, we supply a free meal, companionship, and conversation.
Otago
Our team cooks and serves up to 400 meals each evening. Each meal is rounded off with some home baking, cold drinks, tea or coffee, and on occasion: ice-cream!
Another group of volunteers welcome people and move among them to talk and chat while in a back room another group wash dishes and tidy up.
Over the past 20 years we have served over 25,000 meals. Letters, cards and other messages give us the knowledge that what we are doing is important and is appreciated by the recipients, and in some cases their overseas families. Living costs in this community are high and this is one way we can help especially in the cold of winter.
The Wakatipu Presbyterian Church is long established in Queenstown, Frankton, and Arrowtown. We serve our own community and overseas in partnership with local organisations.
Thank you so much. Your donation is a tremendous help and the encouragement of it is equally beneficial. God bless you.
You are generous - thank you. Your gift certainly makes it a lot easier to treat our community to a wonderful night.
Thank you Bronwyn - your generosity is a blessing to this community.
