Trinity Table

Trinity United Methodist Church (TUMC) began answering the call to feed our neighbors in Atlanta as early as the 1930s when TUMC operated a soup kitchen staffed mainly by the women of the church. Trinity Table was officially established in 1983 as a physical depiction of God's grace and love for all humankind. This mission of Trinity Table is to offer dignity, empathy, and hospitality, through serving a hot meal and meeting basic needs, to those in need in downtown Atlanta. Trinity Table values dignity, empathy, hospitality, service, and community in accomplishing our goal of creating a welcoming and respectful environment where all guests feel seen, valued, and supported, regardless of their circumstances. While Trinity United Methodist Church undergoes reconstruction, Trinity Table is currently located at the Catholic Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, 48 Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. SW, Atlanta, GA 30303. Trinity Table provides a hot meal each Sunday from 2pm-3pm while we are being hosted at the Shrine.

Come Be A Part Of The Table!

There are several ways to be of service to Trinity Table, including volunteering your time on Sunday, sponsoring/providing the Sunday meal, and providing to-go meals. If you or your organization would like to volunteer on a Sunday or provide meals, please contact our Director, Tanesha Slocumb, at tslocumb@atlantatrinity.org. If you would like to donate to the Table, please see our sponsorship form or contact the Director to discuss further. Thank you for helping us accomplish our mission of being of service to our neighbors! We are always humbled when people are able to donate their time, their gifts, and their money because we couldn’t do what we do without each of those. So if you’d like to get involved with Trinity Table, see below for the ways in which you can donate and volunteer.

PARKING information

Please use this map to find parking and building access. Street parking is free on Sundays and is marked in red on the map.

If you're bringing donations, please pull into the driveway marked in blue to unload directly at the kitchen. This driveway is also available for anyone with mobility challenges who needs closer access to the building.

Thank you for being part of Trinity Table's mission. We look forward to seeing you on Sundays at the Shrine!

HOT MEAL & SACK Lunch

Do you have a group or organization that would like to come serve at Trinity Table? We are always in need of people who can prepare and bring a hot meal to serve for lunch and a sack lunch to hand out afterwards. Don’t have the resources to bring a hot meal? For $1000 (you pay) we can have a food truck on site, you just have to bring and hand out the sack lunches. Contact our Volunteer Coordinator Bonnie to find a Sunday to sign up and get more details.

Donate to Trinity Table

We are always open to donations that can help our guests and no effort is too big or too small. Check out our list of most needed items. And if donating money is your thing, there’s a button for that too!

Monetary donations

Donations are always welcomed. We have amazing volunteers that help with The Table every week but like any organization we have some amazing paid staff who are there week in and week out, as well as building and operating costs. In addition, as an organization we also try to stay fluid with the changing needs of our unhoused neighbors and your monetary donations allow us to meet those needs. You can donate with the button below or we make a donation via Venmo.

If your organization would like to put together kits, we are accepting hygiene kits and cold weather kits. The hygiene kits needs to have at least 5 of the items in the list and the cold weather kits need a minimum of 3. We ask that the items be new for the hygiene kits and new or gently used for the cold weather kits. Donations can be dropped off at the church on Sunday mornings or you can email us to arrange a drop off time.
