Meals on Wheels

There are several groups of people who volunteer their time and talent in similar, yet distinct ways, all of which come under the general heading of Meals on Wheels:

• Volunteers who ensure the delivery of meals prepared by the Cobb County Meals on Wheels program (described on this page)

• Volunteers involved in the preparation and delivery of meals on specific holidays for those registered with Roswell Senior Services (described on the page accessed by clicking on the "Holidays" button above)

• Volunteers involved in the preparation and delivery of meals to homebound parishioners (described on the page accessed by clicking on the "Parishioners" button above).
  
  NOTE: This ministry is not affiliated with the Meals on Wheels organization, but rather is a function of Pastoral Care.  It appears here in case those searching for it find this page before finding the information in the Pastoral Care area of the St. Ann's website.

As noted in the first bullet listed above, some Meals on Wheels volunteers from St. Ann's work in cooperation with the Cobb County Meals on Wheels program.  A separate group of individuals prepares and packages the meals in a facility on Fairground Street in Marietta.  The volunteers from St. Ann's help with the delivery of these meals, mainly to areas around Whitlock and Powder Springs Roads. 

The volunteers deliver every Tuesday and Wednesday.  There are enough volunteers so that each one only helps once per month.  For more information, please contact:
