Volunteers appreciation breakfast April 18

Volunteers who provided meals, transportation and companionship to the homeless guests at this years' Overnights of Hospitality will be honored at an appreciation breakfast at 9 a.m. April 18, 2009 at Zion Lutheran Church in North Plymouth. This season's nightly attendance often reached 16 or more, and averaged about double our first season in 2005. The more than 250 volunteers from many of the Plymouth congregations made it all possible.
The Lutheran Church is one of the Plymouth congregations that opened their facilities to house the men, a week at a time on a rotating basis from October to the first week of April. Other congregations include Christ Episcopal Church, First Parish UUA, Church of the Pilgrimage Congregational, Congregation Beth Jacob and First Baptist Church.
