Sunday, February 1
Did you know that Souper Bowl of Caring began right here in Columbia at Spring Valley Presbyterian in 1990? That one idea has now spread across the country and raised nearly $90 million dollars for local charities to feed the hungry! See www.souperbowl.org. Our youth will once again sell soup for our Souper Bowl of Caring on Sunday, Feb. 1st. We will have soup available for pick up and take out after the 8:15am service and Sunday School. There will be "eat in" and/or take out available after 10:45am service. Cost is $3 a bowl, includes soup and cornbread. Soups include chicken noodle, vegetable, vegetable beef, taco, broccoli cheese and potato cheese. All proceeds go to God’s Storehouse that serves persons in our Northeast Columbia community. Youth will also collect coins and dollars in big soup pots after both services for God's Storehouse! Reserve your bowl here.
We could still use some volunteers to make soup. Please contact Wendy McKenzie wendy.mckenzie@sc.edu if you are willing to donate a pot of soup to this endeavor!
