Loaves & Fishes is an outreach effort of the St. Patrick Church's Justice and Peace Committee. It provides a free home cooked meal to anyone who is hungry with no questions asked. The meal is prepared and served by a team of joyful, eager volunteers each Monday beginning at 5pm in the Holloway Center. Meals are served in a curbside, to-go fashion, at the main doors of the Holloway Center (Door D). They will receive a boxed dinner to take with them.
