The Salvation Army in Port Lincoln, South Australia, has recently announced it will be providing hot meals, practical support and a welcoming presence to the community from the Old Port Lincoln Railway Station.

The service will be provided once a month, on the second Friday of each month commencing 10 July. Meals will be served from the Emergency Mobile Catering Unit which is also deployed as a Salvation Army Emergency Services (SAES) vehicle.

The news comes after 18 months of work spent planning, in consultation and obtaining approvals.

“This initiative reflects The Salvation Army’s ongoing commitment to caring for people in need and providing support, hope, and connection within our local community,” said Port Lincoln Corps Ministry Assistant Neal Smith.

“We look forward to serving those who may benefit from this service, and working alongside community partners to make a positive difference in the lives of others.”
