Dubois County Community Meal (DCCM) is an ecumenical based ministry in south western Indiana. Our mission is to reach out to those in need and provide a meal in a faith filled setting. WE are 100% volunteer and rely on donations to feed the hungry.
There are three groups of Precious Blood Parish volunteers that donate their time to the Dubois County Community Meals Program on the third Monday of each month. The three groups rotate throughout the year. They help set up the dining room 12:30 pm – 1:00 pm and serve 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm.
Parishioners of all ages are welcome to join the Precious Blood Volunteer group. One question that is always asked is, “Do I have to cook?” The answer is “No.” There is no cooking involved.
