SOUP IS LOVE

I am asked quite often about the ways someone can help at Meals with Meaning other than at the serving line. So, when St. Gregory's member, Ken Albrecht asked me how he could help I knew just the response.

My response to him was that our guests love soup. Specifically when it is fully cooked and in ready-to-eat containers. His quick reply was "I can make soup". Since then Ken has been bringing frozen soup to the pantry every other week.

Additionally, Ken hosted a dinner party a few weeks back. He asked his friends to exchange flowers and wine gifts for canned goods. He and I were blown away at how much he collected! Ken is an example of how each one of us can make a difference and care for one another in our own way.
