On Sunday July 9, 2017, The Sisters of Barnabas prepared 32 lunches for The Gathering Ministry which is a ministry of Archdeacon Becki Dean and her husband, Kerry. Every Sunday Archdeacon Becki Dean leads an outdoor worship service and afterwards, bagged lunches are passed out to those in situations where they might not attend church services or have food. Jackie Degge organized this outreach event and Sr. Warden Al Arnold and his wife Brenda delivered the lunches and helped to pass them out.
