More churches on board to provide SPiN sack meals

SPiN Cafe is overjoyed to announce that Living Word Church of Oak Harbor has chosen to team with us in our sack meal program. Thanks to Living Word’s support and partnership, we will now be able to add Mondays to our meal service at Flintstone Park.

In addition, strong networking among our local faith community has brought enough support from members of Oak Harbor Presbyterian Church to cover meals on alternating Fridays. 

SPiN Board member Tom Saunders serves a hungry guest, with proper social distancing.

This makes 4 days a week, plus every other Friday, that meals will be provided to those most vulnerable in our community! This fabulous news represents a wonderful and valuable addition to SPiN Cafe’s efforts alongside the three churches already committed to the program: St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church, Church on the Rock, and Christian Reformed Church.

Serving on these additional days shortens the gap in our meal program, in which our vulnerable neighbors have, until now, struggled to find a meal between  Thursdays and Tuesdays. We continue to serve nearly two dozen people at 12:30PM in front of Flintstone Park on Bayshore Drive.

With onoing  support from our citizens, in particular our wonderful faith community in Oak Harbor, we look forward to the ability to extend meal service to seven days a week. Thank you all for your donations, your prayers, and your tireless devotion to SPiN’s mission!

Support SPiN’s efforts financially and donate today. Thank you!

Thank you bayleaf for your support

SPiN Cafe would like to recognize the generosity and support from bayleaf in lovely Coupeville for providing sandwiches for delivery to those in need from our community. It is comforting, even as they too struggle to pay their own bills in these strange and confusing times, to have our local businesses step up to the challenge of feeding the most vulnerable among us.

We welcome anyone else who would like to donate to this worthy cause!

Beginning this week, as a precautionary measure to limit the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19, those buildings are unavailable to us. We will make an announcement as soon as the threat of exposure is eliminated and the churches have reopened.

Meanwhile, the good news: sack meals will be available!

Churches to host SPiN meals

Dear guests, volunteers, and supporters of SPiN Cafe,

We’ve searched for over two months to locate a new place for our coffee shop and dinner service, since our landlord announced that we would need to vacate our long-time space on Bayshore by December 31.

The good news is that, in the midst of ongoing support from churches, pastors, and individuals from all over our local faith community, two amazing congregations in our city have stepped up to partner with us, agreeing to host midweek dinners beginning this week.
