LEND A HELPING HAND IN PROVIDING A BUFFET LUNCH

2026 OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE MISSIONARIES
Four times a year, sisters of the Marietta GA Stake have the opportunity to prepare food and serve lunch to the local missionaries at their zone conference.
The missionaries are SO grateful for the chance to gather and for our service to them. It's an enjoyable opportunity to meet and visit with them too.
Below is a SignUpGenius link for sisters in our Stake to volunteer to either:
1) prepare food that the Stake Relief Society Presidency purchases and delivers to you the day prior to the lunch
OR
2) serve the meal (from 11a-1p)
OR
3) both.
The Zone Conferences are held at the Woodstock Building, 2205 Bascomb Carmel Road, Woodstock, GA 30189.
Dates of these Zone Conference lunches are:
Friday, 7/3/26
Friday, 10/2/26
