About Dinner Together
Dinner Together began in January, 2020. First Baptist Church invited Community Table, a long-standing community meal served at Front Royal Presbyterian Church, to begin serving on Thursday nights from First Baptist. Good Shepherd Lutheran began serving on Monday nights and First Baptist began serving on Wednesdays. In March of 2020, in response to the COVID 19 outbreak, The organizations making up Tuesday’s Table, formerly served at Calvary Episcopal Church, moved to join the other groups at First Baptist Church. They retained their Tuesday night service. In April, the group as a whole, Dinner Together, added a Saturday evening service.
Since joining together, Dinner Together has not only served guests who walk-up for carry-outs, but they have also provided meals for the Thermal Shelter and House of Hope, as needed.
Dinner Together is made up of First Baptist Church, Calvary Episcopal Church, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Front Royal Presbyterian Church, Front Royal United Methodist Church, Riverton United Methodist Church, The Rappahannock Charge, Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Front Royal Church of the Brethren, South Warren Ruritan Club, Warren County Rotary, the Communitarians, as well as a number of unaffiliated volunteers from the Front Royal/Warren County community.
Dinner Together has gratefully received donations of food and monetary support from the congregations of each serving church, SYSCO and Costco (through Reaching Out Now) and many members of the community. To volunteer or donate, contact Dee Sparger at 540-635-3894 or missions@frontroyalpres.org.
Dinner Together will continue to serve take-out meals only through the stay-at-home order.
