L Street Mission is a ministry that serves the unhoused population in Brockton, MA. Located in the basement of the Central United Methodist Church in Brockton, it is a partnership effort of several diverse churches that come together every Saturday to provide warm meals, spiritual nourishment and needed hygiene/clothing items. We are grateful for our partners: Central United Methodist Church, Pearl Street United Methodist Church, Perfecting Life Ministries, New Hope Christian Chapel, and Grace Fellowship!
Citylife and Grace Fellowship partner to serve approximately 100 servings of food and dessert for lunch every second Saturday of the month.

If you would like to set your own menu:
Menu usually includes 3 components: protein, carb and salad/veg, but this is flexible. There are guests who really, really appreciate salad and sometimes ask for salad only, so there could be disappointment if there isn’t a vegetable dish.
Sample menus:
Spaghetti & Meatballs, salad, roll
Hot dogs or sausage in buns, potato salad, beans
Pulled pork sandwiches, coleslaw, chips
Taco bowls: taco meat, rice&beans, tortilla chips, shredded lettuce, cheese, salsa
Rotisserie chicken, carb side, salad
