Every Sunday from September to May, the Immaculate Conception Soup Kitchen, 181 Austin St N in Winnipeg, serves a nutritious meal to hungry people. On February 6, it was our turn to provide the food for their Sunday meal.
As usual, the big-hearted parishioners of St. Charles Parish demonstrated their generous spirit. The meal consisted of homemade chili, buns, bananas, bottled water, juice boxes and cookies.
Steve, a volunteer at the soup kitchen, stated because of the generous amount of food they were able to, “serve 200 individual meals and nine family hampers. There was lots of chili and we had enough for about half the people to get two bowls with leftovers”.
The St. Charles Ladies’ Association wishes to thank the many parishioners who helped supply the meal for the Immaculate Conception Soup Kitchen. Thanks to those who made chili, bought groceries, donated money, baked cookies, transported food, and prayed for its success.
