One Meal at Kingsgrove and Service

One Meal at Kingsgrove and Service

Since 2021, we have been offering a weekly meal service for the vulnerable in our community.  In partnership with Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Primary School and Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, our weekly meal service  is an active way of living the Gospel values and allows a visible expression of Serviam in our local community. 

We are calling for people who are interested in taking part to register their interest as Team member. 

What will be required?

  • A commitment on a Wednesday every 12 weeks. 
  • Take away service 
  • You will be required at the Clune Centre from 4:00pm – 5:00pm
  • You will work as part of a team of 8-10 volunteers. Each team will have a designated team leader. This number will allow the work to be spread out and shared. 
  • You will be asked to bring a home cooked meal to the dinner service. (Main courses, side dishes, soups, fruit and dessert) Meals need to be nutritious, healthy and include a range of protein and vegetables. 
  • The team will set up, serve and pack away the service.
  • The dinner service will run outside of the Clune Centre at 89 Shaw St Kingsgrove. 
  • All volunteers would be covered by insurance from One Meal.

If this ministry is something you may consider, please feel free to reach out to me at the College on 95023300 or via email at antoinette.nader@syd.catholic.edu.au

What does “Service “ look like at St Ursula’s College?

At St. Ursula’s College, Serviam, meaning “to serve,” embodies the Ursuline tradition of fostering a commitment to service, compassion, and leadership among students. This value is expressed through various activities and initiatives that encourage students to contribute positively to their school, local community, and beyond. 

Examples of how Serviam is reflected include:

Social Justice / Outreach
Community / Parish Involvement
