St. Francis Mission Meal Saturday, January 25, 2014

An over whelming response to the call for warm clothes, mittens, scarves and hats today.  All of the these items were available to the community of West Hill.   Along with the outer wear came dozens of volunteers to help serve a very nutritious meal, with salad fruit, chili and bread.  Thanks goes out to Susan, Eric, Kathy, Louis, Pam, George, Fr. Hunter, Deacon Scott and his crew from St. Georges.  We served over 100 meals and also 100 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.  A prayer table staff braved the 19 degree weather and handed out hats and gloves along with prayers.
