Thanks to our friends with Ditch Witch, Haskell Lemon Construction, Steve Sherman Law, and Harper Welding for providing Dinner with Love this amazing smoker. We will able to feed thousands of families for years to come.
The Dinner with Love Foundation is a grassroots community outreach program created in 2008. The program’s mission is to share the joy of a complete, totally-cooked holiday dinner with families in Oklahoma City who do not have the financial means to provide a similar meal for themselves. Over 80,000 Christmas meals have been delivered since 2008.
2023 Delivery Date
Two locations to pick up dinners:
- December 22nd at Westminster Presbyterian Church (Volunteers Needed)
- December 22nd at Bethany First Church of the Nazarene (Full)
* A minimum of two people per delivery is required.
* Pickup time is at 5pm
* Delivery signups will be available starting Dec. 10th on our website and Facebook
Given what is going on with COVID-19, we will need to make changes in the way we provide meals. This year, we will implement safety restrictions by limiting contact between volunteers and recipients. The same food will be provided, but meals will be cooked and ready to deliver. We will also provide families with non-perishable food and snacks to help during the holiday break.
“Since its creation Dinner with Love has had a significant and lasting impact on several aspects of Oklahoma City. It was formed in honor of the Christmas season to provide much needed food to families in need. In addition to the people who receive the food, the volunteers who prepare, box and deliver the food are also enriched. And finally, there are a number of other organizations (primarily churches) which are aware of and provide support to this endeavor. All totaled the number of people and organizations which are impacted by the high-impact work and the people who receive the dinners are almost incalculable. This truly does spread the joy of Christmas and proclaim the birth of Christ.” – Daniel P. Junkin, Pastor, Hillcrest Presbyterian Church
