SOUP KITCHEN UPDATE:Thank you to all the generous parishioners who have responded so quickly to our requests for help with the upcoming January Soup Kitchen service day. As of January 6, we have commitments for all the food and help we need to serve our guests. Thank you for your support!! Our next scheduled Soup Kitchen service date is May 29.
St. Paul’s, Ivy serves in the Soup Kitchen at Christ Episcopal Church, Charlottesville, on any 5th Tuesday of a month. We provide the food, prepare it, serve it and clean up afterwards.
