Pie

Thanksgiving at Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen. Helping the usual

volunteers, parishioners portioned several dozen pumpkin pies...

Because of covid, meals for the last year and a half have been assembled by small teams inside and offered to hundreds of guests a day in to-go boxes from the church steps. (This is in addition to the food pantry program which offers hundreds of families bags of food three days a week.) On holidays this is supplemented by a dessert, distributed a few meters farther down. Costs of food, you'll have heard, are going up, so demand for both soup kitchen and food pantry keep rising, and costs too. Worth a donation!
