Grace Cafe returns Oct. 8 to St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church

Grace Cafe returns to the Elmhurst community for its 12th year.

Grace Cafe was started in 2007 as an ecumenical mission project to provide a free hot meal to anyone in the community and is currently supported by 15 Elmhurst churches whose members provide two dinner gatherings per month for their guests.

This year offers 16 opportunities for fellowship and sharing a meal, from September through May 2019.

Community members who are facing a tight budget or are eager to share a delicious dinner, warm companionship and conversation with other folks are invited to come to Grace Cafe.

Families are welcome. Doors open at 4:30 p.m.; meals will be served starting at 5 p.m. and concluding at 6:30 p.m. at the Elmhurst churches listed below. No reservations are needed and meals are free of charge to anyone who would enjoy them. For information, contact Bethel United Church of Christ at (630) 279-4040.
