Family Promise &
Schneider House of Hope
Temporary Shelter for Displaced Families
In 2021 the Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN) announced a new name, “Family Promise of Greene County.“ The Schneider House of Hope in Xenia is still the same place for meal deliveries.
Epiphany’s next week of service to prepare meals for Family Promise is October 8-14. Please consider preparing a meal for homeless families in transition.
This is a great way for small groups to serve. As a matter of fact, Epiphany youth chose this opportunity as one of their fall service projects! Join our youth in serving our ministry partner, Family Promise.
The guests are used to simple meals. Each meal needs to have meat, a vegetable, and dessert. We ask that you try not to duplicate meals. For example, avoid two Italian pasta dishes in the same week. Disposable aluminum containers are recommended for the meals. You do not need to take any tableware, condiments, or beverages, as these are already provided.
To let people know what meals are planned by others, this page will be updated as soon as possible during church office hours after a meal sign-up occurs. Coordinator Rose Wasky will send out an email a week in advance to let you know how many people there will be at the Schneider House of Hope to cook for with a reminder of your chosen date.
The meal will need to arrive at the Schneider House of Hope in Xenia by 5 p.m. We typically encourage people delivering meals to stay and visit with the house guests.
Thank you for volunteering to prepare and deliver a meal to families less fortunate than we are. “For I was hungry and you gave me food…” – Matthew 25:35 (NRSV)
