St. John is organizing service dates to support the SF Interfaith Winter Shelter. Since 2016, we have coordinated small groups to make and serve meals for San Francisco’s unhoused neighbors through this program, which provides a hot, nutritious dinner, case management, community services, and a place to sleep during the cold winter months.
On each date, cook at St. John Armenian Church 10:00 AM–noon (275 Olympia Way, San Francisco), then distribute food 5:00–7:00 PM at the location listed below. All times are local San Francisco time (Pacific Time).
These are six specifically selected service dates, not a weekly schedule.
View the separate 10:00 AM cooking series. Cooking start times are subject to change; participants should check with the office before coming.
