Food Safe

Any food preparation in the Kitchen must be supervised by a certified Food Safe person.

In this season of COVID, there are also specific Kitchen and food/beverage service. View our COVID Protocols here.

Left-Over Food

Please don't leave left-over food unless you plan to use it for an upcoming event or have communicated with someone who would like to use it. Otherwise left-overs unfortunately often rot. If food will be used for an upcoming event, please label all food with the name of the event it will be used for and communicate with that event leader. 

Kitchen Machines

Our Kitchen is equiped with an industrial dishwasher, convection oven, flat grill, stove top, ovens, ice machine, industrial coffee maker, small coffee maker, walk-in cooler, walk-in freezer.

Coffee maker and dishwasher use instructions are posted nearby each machine. For help lighting the pilot lights on the stove, please contact someone from the office. 

Each ministry is responsible for cleaning up the Kitchen, dishes, and appliances used. Please do not leave dirty dishes.

 

Kitchen Supplies

Items in the first row of shelving in the pantry are considered General Kitchen items. These are shared by all and are available to any ministry.

There are shelves in the pantry, cooler and freezer which are labelled for specific ministries. Please do not use any items from those shelves without permission from the ministry.

 

Coffee & Tea

Coffee bags are located in the drawer under the large coffee maker and are pre-portioned for the large coffee maker. One bag makes about 60 cups of coffee. The smaller coffee machine makes about 12 cups of coffee. If you'd like coffee for your ministry, please let the office know via your Office Communication Form.

Tea is located in the bottom drawer under the large coffee maker. 

 

Beverage Service Supplies

Supplies are kept in the cabinets of our coffee counter, just outside of the Kitchen in the Foyer. This includes: cups, lids, sleeves, stir sticks, sugar, water dispensors, and bowls for garbage/tea bags. 

 

Tablecloths

Various types of white and black tablecloths are stored in bins under the long Kitchen counter. All dirty linens should be placed under the large Kitchen sink. They are collected and are laundered weekly.
