Meals of Mission

We are super-excited to introduce a new outreach program with a special LBC twist--Meals of Mission! This is a project in which our whole church is participating in the spirit of showing our community love like they've never seen before. Unlike traditional outreach and door-to-door visitation programs, we plan to come with a spaghetti dinner in our hands and a whole lot of love in our hearts! Here's how it works: church members compile a list of names of people in the community who are willing to let us come & visit--anyone can suggest names. Families that have just moved to the area or people without a church home are just two examples of the folks we plan to visit. Once contact is made, a small team will go to the person's home to visit and to bring a spaghetti dinner with all the trimmings--including tea. That's the scope of the program--no strings attached--just good food and a little love.

Below is a list of ways you can help with Meals of Mission--we have listed numerous opportunities to participate even if you are unable to get out & visit or prepare a spaghetti meal. Contact Dawn Priest, Kristie Priest, or Sandra Robbins if you would like to participate, or send an email to meals@lisbonbaptistchurchnc.com.
