F.O.O.D. or Feeding Others of Dartmouth-Margaret’s House, is a ministry that St. James has been a part of for many years. The program serves individuals who are less fortunate than most. For many of them, this may be their only meal of the day. Margaret’s House is located at 43 Wentworth Street, in the downtown core. It is a volunteer-based organization, with a small part-time staff and is overseen by a board of directors, half from the downtown Dartmouth business community and the other half from various churches in the area.
Through the dedication of Donna and George Kuhn, this ministry continues. Each year, they contact the members of St. James to invite them to contribute financially to this ministry. They then purchase groceries to provide the noontime meal on the third Tuesday of the month. The financial support offered by the members of the congregation makes this possible.
