St. Peter’s Vegetable Soup delivered March 1

This is an ECW project to deliver soup to 18 families in the area that we have not seen as much during the pandemic.

The plan – Nancy, Sylvia, Cookie, Andrea, Barbara, and Elizabeth will each make 8 servings of this vegetable soup and bring it over to the parish house by 10:30 on Monday, March 1, Cookie and Nancy have agreed to stir it up and package it. Then, Andrea, Nancy, Cookie, Catherine, and Elizabeth will deliver it by 12:30 that day. Catherine is going to make bread to include with the soup, Becky will get the containers. Elizabeth will write little notes to include with the soup. As a bonus Andrea also contributed chicken soup.

The soup used is a combination of recipes from ECW members.
