Church Potluck
Organize balanced fellowship meals where every dish category is covered. This example shows how a mid-size congregation coordinates their monthly Sunday potluck.
Use This TemplateThe Scenario
Pastor David and the fellowship committee at Grace Community Church (200 members)
Monthly after-service potluck feeding 80-120 attendees each time
Without coordination, the church ended up with ten casseroles and no desserts. Paper sign-up sheets in the lobby were hard to read and often went missing.
An online signup sheet organized by food category ensures balanced variety, and the digital format lets members sign up from home during the week.

Tips for This Type of Signup
Set Category Limits
Cap each food category to prevent ten desserts and no main dishes. Adjust limits based on expected attendance.
Use Comments for Dish Names
Enable comments so members can note exactly what they are bringing, helping avoid duplicates like three potato salads.
Note Dietary Needs
Ask members to mention allergens or dietary labels (gluten-free, vegetarian) in their comments for safety.
Add Setup and Cleanup Slots
Include non-food slots for table setup, serving line management, and post-meal cleanup so the same people don't always do the work.
