Twenty local churches and several community organizations came together to form the Soup Kitchen Coalition. This group rotates weekly to provide volunteers and food to serve dinner. The food pantry provides some protein, fresh produce, and desserts when available.
S.O.S. Soup Kitchen is a strictly feeding ministry, open to anyone in need of a warm meal . There are no qualifying factors or strings attached. If you or your group is interested in volunteering, contact John Green for Thursdays at 618-344-2526 and Kristine Cleland for Tuesdays at 618-344-2526. We are also on Facebook at SOS Spirit of Sharing!
Please come and join us on Tuesday and Thursday!
