Soup's On with Roberts Park

Each quarter, volunteers from The Garden work with Roberts Park UMC's Soup's On food ministry program. Since 1999, Soup’s On has prepared and served nearly 150,000 meals to neighbors in need. Approximately 250 guests come to eat and spend time together, enjoying a safe and comfortable dining environment. Teams of volunteers organized by area churches and other local groups work from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm to set up, prepare and serve food, and clean up the kitchen and dining area. Organizations also provide financial support and resources.  This effort takes a crew of 20 volunteers each week, and nearly 1000 each year.

The next Soup's On Volunteer opportunity will be Sunday, February 5. That day, The Garden will serve a meal at Soup’s On at Roberts Park. We need buns, chips, apples, oranges and cookies, to serve 125 people. Also, if you want to pitch in on the purchase of the meat that would be GREAT! 

You can add your name to the volunteer list on Sunday after service, or by contacting Helen at 317-430-7935 or 317-733-2031 or hpayne@indy.rr.com.
