What is the Lord’s Diner?
The Lord’s Diner exists to combat hunger in the community. The Diner’s singular mission is to serve a nutritious meal with dignity and respect to anyone who is hungry.
How can I volunteer at the Lord’s Diner?
Contact Allison Lesley, 316-706-9392.
1. All volunteers are required to take a food safety quiz. We have a free, online version available here: www.servefood.wichita.gov
2. Volunteers who are ages 18 and older also must take a safe environment class called Virtus. The Lord’s Diner serves a vulnerable population. We strive to keep everyone who comes through our doors safe. The Lord’s Diner offers a Virtus class on the first Thursday of each month at 5 P.M.

How often can I volunteer?
Most volunteers come once a month, but frequency is up to you, the volunteer.
What if I can’t make it everytime?
That’s okay! We understand that things come up, but please give us a call as soon as possible so we can find coverage.
