Sharing Jesus' love - one meal at a time...

The Tree of Life Ministries Community Kitchen in Winchester provides a meal to our neighbors in need on a monthly basis and counts on dedicated volunteers to make it possible.  Small groups of friends, families, neighbors, church groups, etc. come together and commit to providing and serving a meal to make this a success.  Community helping community!
