Hi,
I'm  the director of a soup kitchen ministry in Meriden CT and I can
attest to the validity of this article.  We are scraping by..Thank God
we had the Boy Scouts do a Thanksgiving food drive for us. But still
we have far less than we need to see us through until the Postal Food
drive in April. There are a lot of truly hurting people out there, yes
you get the few cons and lazy bums, but most of the folks we serve are
really genuinely in deep need..
But I do have a good report at least for our Ministry.. Volunteers are
up. We now have 5 churches participating! Each Church has at least 6
to 7 people coming to help out.
