The Stone Soup Ministry team at Oak Ridge Unitarian Universalist Church will continue serving a summer menu of lighter and cooler foods at the Friday, July 28, free community meal. Everyone is invited to attend. Dine-in or take-out will be available from 5 to 6 p.m.

ORUUC is located at 809 Oak Ridge Turnpike (close to traffic light number 2.)

On the menu will be homemade pimiento cheese sandwiches, three bean salad, cookies, and fresh fruit, a press release said. An assortment of nonperishable family friendly groceries will be available for free to anyone in need. The Free Community Meal at ORUUC is held the last Friday of every month at the same time.

“We hope people from throughout the community will join us over the summer,” said Abbie Moore, the ministry’s co-coordinator. “Some guests come for the homemade meals and the fellowship, and others because they just don’t feel like cooking.”

Food is provided by the ORUUC Congregation and the Jewish Congregation of Oak Ridge.

Special thanks to Community partners Kroger and Hank’s Market for participating in the meal, the press release said.

For more information, call the ORUUC office at (865) 483-6761.
