When in-person daily meal service to hungry people in the Rogers Park community was necessarily suspended during the pandemic, Lutheran Church of the Ascension continued supporting our decades-long ministry partner, A Just Harvest Community Kitchen, by providing food for one meal a month.  A Just Harvest used our food donations to prepare take home and home delivered meals for their clients. Missing was the sense of community that develops when people gather at table to share food and fellowship. 

In early November, that sense of community was restored! The Kitchen reopened for LUNCH service seven days a week. Following the previous schedule, Ascension will provide food for one meal each month (the third Tuesday of the month). Prior volunteers are eager to return to in-person service and welcome you to join in!

Please consider supporting Ascension's ministry with A Just Harvest by  donating needed food items, transporting food items to the facility, assisting on site cooks  to prepare and serve the meal. Financial donations are also appreciated! Contact the office to sign up today!
