Location: Independence Boulevard Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

***Please note: Katie will be co-host since I am often in the men's clothing area and she is out in the dining hall and more available for questions. She has experience at Micah and will help any volunteer with questions. Thank you, Katie, for stepping in where we need help! :)

Those in need are always standing in line, but not at Micah Ministry where meals are served to them, along with items from the clothing pantry. At Micah the needy are the guests, and we are the gracious hosts.

If you can be there at 5 is ideal, but please arrive no later than 5:15 for job assignments. We recommend trying different positions to find your favorite: food server, beverage table, children's area, dessert cart, clothing pantry or bussing. Dinner starts at 5:30 and ends by 7 pm. It can be chaotic, but most volunteers find it very rewarding. On a typical Monday evening Micah Ministry serves 300-500 of Kansas City's working poor and homeless.

AGE RESTRICTIONS: Because only basic screenings are given for our guests, there are rules to keep volunteers safe. Children 12+ are allowed to work alongside an adult. Those over 16 may volunteer solo.

DIRECTIONS: The Church is located on the south side of Independence Blvd and is a blocked stone structure with large pillars. The parking lot is behind the church and another is across the street on the east side. Walk in the back entrance of the building inside the fenced parking lot, where the Security Guard stands. Go down the stairs, through the kitchen, and into the dining hall. As you enter the hall doorway the name tags will be immediately to your left. Please make yourself a tag and add ServeKC so we can find each other easily. The beverage table is just beyond the name tags, we will gather in that area until time to serve.
