OJCA and the Lord’s Table Connection

Oneonta Job Corps has been fortunate enough to be able to take part in the Lord’s Table volunteer opportunity for several years. This is a very popular volunteer activity with the students because they all love the interaction they have with the community members that the Lord’s Table provides service to. Giving back is a very important practice at Oneonta Job Corps. The students like working there so much we started going twice a month instead of just once. I think if we could go every day they would! Joyce Mason runs the Lord’s Table and always welcomes our students with open arms. We receive many compliments on the terrific job they do in the kitchen and their positive interactions with the community members. Not only do the students make Job Corps proud, they make themselves proud as well. Although there is not a certification for volunteering in the community, it’s just as valuable of a learning experience as any other skill.
