A note from Tom Saunders:
Together with our fabulous volunteers and their churches, SPiN Cafe is now serving sack meals to our guests SIX DAYS A WEEK, from Monday through Saturday! The most recent to join our outstanding group is the Oak Harbor United Methodist Church. Janice Hayes and her team will be preparing meals and serving on Saturdays, beginning May 2nd. With the recent addition of Friday service beginning on May 1st, we have grown from serving three days a week on March 17th with 3 churches, to a total of 7 churches participating today. Dreams do come true!
SPiN Cafe sack meals are served beginning at 12:15 PM in front of Flintstone Park on Bayshore Drive in Oak Harbor. SPiN and our guests are deeply grateful to the seven churches participating: St. Stephen’s Episcopal, Church on the Rock, Christian Reformed, Living Word, Whidbey Presbyterian, Oak Harbor Lutheran, and Oak Harbor United Methodist.
I would like to thank everyone for their tremendous support and the efforts you have made to provide this essential need to members of our local community who are less fortunate. We are all thanked daily by each of them for the food provided. I would also like to thank Laurel Fagan for joining the SPiN Cafe team and coordinating this program on a daily basis. We are making our island a better place with each meal we serve.
To our Faith Community leaders, thank you for your guidance and prayers which has led us all together to this calling.
In Christ,
Tom Saunders
