Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday, Septeember 16, 2009 Page 3 Tuesday's Table is back to help out BY GARIT REID Sentinel Staff The meal program called Tuesday's Table is is coming back to three local churches in Lucknow. They have seen a need for some in the community for this type of service and want to bring, a good hot meal to those who .need it. The three churches involved in the program are the Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church, St. Peter's Anglican Church and Lucknow United Church. The program had a trial run on the first three Tuesdays: of May, June and July and is back for the same thing in October, November and December. Pastor Rita Klein- Geltink believes the ini- tial three months was a success and believes the program will grow' in the upcoming three months. She knows the biggest obstacle is peo- ple feel uncomfortable attending the meal, but the churches want everyone who attends to know that it's more than a free meal; it's a way for the churches to be there for the communi- ty. "It's just meeting an immediate need," said Klein-Geltink. "It's not addressing the underly- ing causes. We know that, but it also opens the door to people to a friendly atmosphere. It's just puts a friendly face on all of Lucknow." The three churches will be going through a rotation of five different dinners, in order to pro- vide a variety. . The program's goal is to help people who are facing tough financial times due to the things like the repercussions of the economy and are finding it hard to make ends meet. Everyone involved wants to see the. pro- gram grow and a way of doing that is to try and get the local businesses involved. It's a way for the churches and busi- nesses of Lucknow to come together in a posi- tive way. "The community, Lord willing thepro- gram grows," said Klein-Geltink, "If it does we will be talking to some businesses to see if we can get some support and donations from them. It will just make things more of a community event." Oct. 6 will be the first day of Tuesday's Table and it will take place at St. Peter's Church at 5:30 p.m. Anyone who wants to donate or help in any way can contact one of the three churches put- ting on the meal pro- gram. Anything from food to money, to just helping out would be appreciated by the churches.
