Speaker: Dr. Bryan Fields, Volunteer and Discipleship Coordinator, Meals on Wheels
Porter Medley, a long-standing Club Member, introduced our speaker Dr. Bryan Fields, a pastor and former hospice chaplain who is now utilizing his professional and spiritual leadership skills to coordinate the activities of over 200 volunteers to help feed 300+ clients in need and share the love of Jesus with them, Meals on Wheels of Horry and Georgetown County.
Meals on Wheels exists to provide nutrition, compassion, hope, assistance, and the love of Jesus to those who are or have family that is classified as homebound, elderly, and terminally ill.
Its mission is “Delivering God’s Love One Meal at a Time” in order to transform the lives of those they serve by sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ, focusing on the whole being, upholding the sanctity of life, and dealing with their current nutritional needs.
A knock at the door might not seem like a big deal to many of us. But, to a homebound senior, it could signal the arrival of the only person they might see all day or all week long. It brings hope. It brings health. It brings the nutrition and care that will completely make their day. A knock from Meals on Wheels means nourishment for the body and soul.
There are many volunteer opportunities for either working in the kitchen or driving. Those who help in the kitchen perform a variety of duties helping to plate and prepare meals as well as washing dishes and sweeping floors. If you are interested in any of these volunteer areas contact Dr. Fields by email at mowroutemanager@gmail.com or call 843-970-2330 ext. 4 to request more information.
