Volunteer Teams Needed to Make Meals for Winter Relief 2026

St. Anne’s will be partnering with First Presbyterian Church who will host Winter Relief from February 16-23, 2026. During that week, we have the opportunity to provide shelter, meals, showers, fellowship, and safety to 20+ men experiencing homelessness. There will be many varied volunteer roles throughout that week for which we’ll be providing sign-up sheets as we get closer.

In the meantime, we are beginning to recruit teams of meal volunteers (4 per team) to provide breakfast or dinner for these guests. Volunteers for these meals will organize, prepare, serve and clean up. Daily breakfasts need to be ready by 6:00 a.m. (with volunteers arriving around 5 a.m.); dinners need to be ready around 5:30-6 p.m.

If you can organize a team to prepare a meal, please contact Katie Mazur and provide 2-3 choices of which dates/meals you’d like to provide and a communication point person for your team. Contact Katie at katherinemazur@gmail.com or 301-974-2306.

We look forward to hearing from you. This is a wonderful opportunity to share the kindness, compassion and cooking talent of our parish!
