60 gallons of soup throughout six sites in Greater Cleveland. Every Wednesday. Coming soon to Saint James Catholic Parish, Lakewood, OH! 🍲 "Stirring Up Hope" — the soup ministry from First Presbyterian Church and EDWIN's Leadership and Restaurant Institute — has expanded to St. James Church, and we couldn't be more excited.
City of Lakewood, Ohio - Municipal Government's Saint James will begin receiving 10 gallons of Edwin's artisan soup on Wednesday, April 1st, with a plan to distribute every Wednesday starting at 11 a.m. straight from the kettle! Barry Bagels will also donate bagels to ensure every guest in need of a meal receives one.
The current "Stirring up Hope" sites include:
1) The First Presbyterian Church in Cleveland
2) Church of the Covenant
3) Redeemer Crisis Center
4) North Presbyterian Church at Norma Herr Women's Center
5) NEOCH's Seasonal Shelter
6) Saint James Catholic Parish, Lakewood, OH
Blessings to all as we continue to grow this ministry!
