Empty Bowls
The Empty Bowls event netted $11,000 for the Soup Kitchen Ministry!!! Many thanks to the potters who created the beautiful bowls, the restaurants and individuals who
donated food, the volunteers who served and, most of all, those who attended. It was a sell out two weeks prior to
the event!!!! May God bless the use of these funds to maintain and expand this ministry.
