Outreach Ministries of FLC


  • The food pantry

    The food pantry at First Lutheran serves upwards of 450 families each year. Generous contributions of food from the Flint Hills Breadbasket and First Lutheran members and friends allow us to make a real difference in the lives of our neighbors. In addition to food staples, First Lutheran strives to provide much needed personal hygiene items not available from Breadbasket. Prayer support and donations are appreciated, and new volunteers are always welcome. 

  • first suppers

    First Suppers is our weekly community meal.  We provide a free, nutritious meal to our neighbors every Thursday night.  In the past nine years we have served thousands of meals to people of all ages and backgrounds.  In addition, meals are served here on Monday and Friday nights by other local churches.  First Lutheran is a member of Common Table, a coalition of area churches that provide free community meals.  Join us here for a free meal Monday, Thursday or Friday at 6pm!

  • first closet

    First Closet operates in conjunction with First Suppers on Thursday evenings.  Congregational donations allow us to offer a wide variety of basic clothing, linens, and hygiene products for those with a current need.  Occasionally, by appointment, we provide help at other times during the week.

  • crafting ministries (prayer shawl and quilting)

    God gives us each gifts, according to God's will. Some can sing, some can teach, and some can work wonders with their hands. Both the Prayer Shawl Ministry and the Quilters create beautiful pieces to give to someone who might need tangible evidence of God's love. 

  • Lutheran Campus ministry meals

    You are invited to assist LCM in this ministry by providing a simple Sunday evening meal that allows students to assemble together and enjoy good food and Christian fellowship prior to the evening worship. There are many opportunities to sign up and provide a meal August through May.
