Nourishing Our Community,
One Saturday at a Time.

Welcome to Saturday Morning Breakfast.

Our mission is to create hope for all by providing a warm, welcoming community of guests and volunteers, centered around the hot, nutritious breakfasts.

Every Saturday morning from 8AM - 10AM at the McMinnville Cooperative Ministries, we serve a hearty, home-cooked breakfast to anyone who could use good food and a sense of community—no questions asked. Just show up for kindness, connection, and a place to belong. We are not religiously-affiliated.
