489 meals served on Saturday, September 22, 2013 at St. Joseph's Soup Kitchen in Greenwich Village
One of our newest volunteers, Sabrina, displays the meal tray served to guests prepared by the Guthries and volunteers. Baked Bucatini delightfully oozing with parmesan, mozzarella, and ricotta cheese, mushrooms and sumptuous sirloin beef in a marinara sauce was the main entree. The vegetarian entree featured lentils-and-brown-rice balls as the meat substitute.
Blueberry and blue cheese salad was also served along with bread, fruit cup, coffee, lemonade and freshly baked German Sweet Bread.
Pictured: Sabrina first stepped foot at SJSK this past June as a member of the volunteer group New York State of Mind (NYSOM). She's been a force in these few months, volunteering regularly, often for both morning and afternoon shifts. She's been helpful with recruiting other volunteers to come out to lend a hand, especially on Summer Saturdays when we didn't have a volunteer group lined up.
Sabrina is always warm, friendly and enthusiastic. She tells us: "Every Saturday in the afternoon, I walk out of the soup kitchen with a smile on my face and feeling very satisfied."
