Volunteers, past and present, gathered together recently for a potluck luncheon to celebrate 30 years of Norway Community Lunch at First Universalist Church of Norway.

NORWAY — Norway Community Lunch will resume serving free and delicious, weekly hot lunches on Wednesday, Nov. 2, at 11:30 a.m. at the First Universalist Church of Norway, 479 Main Street, Norway. All are welcome!

Community Lunch is a program of the Oxford Hills Area Association of Churches and has been in operation for 30 years. “We have been advised that it is now safe to reopen our Community Lunch meal program. Knowing that the roadside food bank served a great need during the Covid emergency, we are
grateful to be able, once again, to provide hot meals and fellowship,” said Marilyn Hammond, President of the Oxford Hills Area Association of Churches.

The first Community Lunch meal was served on March 4, 1992 at the First Universalist Church of Norway. The founders of Community Lunch were adamant that the fellowship inherent in dining in community is equally as important as the food being served.
