Feeding, Fulfilling, Training  

LEARNING LIFE SKILLS IS AN IMPORTANT STEP IN BREAKING THE CYCLE OF POVERTY.

Learning real-world life skills will absolutely increase the chance of a successful professional life. Learning who we really work for and what matters in an eternal perspective is the MOST valuable thing that our students learn.

Infusing real work and culinary skills with biblical truth and a message of salvation and Hope makes the culinary training at South Side Mission a little different. Our students make the grade by gaining valuable life skills while they experience a new skill that can help in their family.

 

 

 

Youth Culinary training is an important part of our curriculum for youth at South Side Mission. These lessons can be a great head start for youth looking to expand their learning and develop potential job skills as they get older. The youth get training on how to safely operate in a kitchen and also get hands-on experiences with a variety of foods – from entrees to desserts!

Feeding the hungry

Our soup kitchen serves free lunch Monday through Friday and is open to everyone in our community. Guests can expect to receive great food every time they come, but more importantly, they can also expect to receive an encouraging word and biblical message presented by one of several visiting or staff pastors. This ministry feeds 125-150 people each week and is a tremendous blessing to those who just need a little extra help with food.

Doors open each day between 11:45 AM and Noon. Guests should arrive on time, as no late arrivals are allowed entry.
