Wayside Soup Kitchen

This Monday night instead of our usual gathering we are going as a group to serve at the Wayside Soup Kitchen here in Portland. Some of us have been there on our own, but I am looking forward to the experience of all going together and then reflecting on the experience over our own pot of soup. (Our supper will actually be soup unlike what we will most likely be preparing and serving).

After previous times there I have longed for a greater mutuality between the patrons and the servers, but at the same time I am grateful that this daily ministry feeds hungry people 365 days a year in a respectful and welcoming way.

We'll see you there.
