YMI Catering Team

Our Aim

This department's main focus is to meet dietary requirements of church members, guests and visitors through the provision of healthy and tasty meals for the glory of God, 1 Corinthians 10:31.

Achieving the Aim

The Catering Ministry covers all aspects of the food and beverages offered at Church. From the teas and coffees served after the Sunday services in the refectory, so we can enjoy fellowship in a relaxed environment, to the food provided at larger Church events. Willingly putting Jesus’ teaching into practice and serving others is something that we are called to do, and it does not only encourage fellowship within the teams but develops skills that we might not have recognised within ourselves. 1 Peter 4:8–10 says, “And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins. Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.”

One of the ways we seek to achieve our aim is by creating authentic cuisines that are alive with flavour and nutrition, prepared from scratch using authentic ingredients and recipes. Our kitchen philosophy ensures that we accomplish this in a socially responsible manner in line with food and hygiene regulations for the well being of church members, guests and visitors. To meet our objectives we ensure that all the ingredients we use are of best quality sourced from reputable suppliers. When there is a need to outsource the food and drink provisions, we follow a stringent system that upholds quality and excellence.

Our Catering Team is educated in the principles of our kitchen philosophy. The result? Our food is well prepared, with real flavours and excellent delivery that surpasses expectations at most times. More saints are encouraged to join the team to enhance the health and wellbeing of God’s family, Genesis 1:29.
