Souper Sunday
Sun Feb 11 @ 1 pm
Souper Sunday Is Coming Up!
Let’s keep a ten-year-plus CBS tradition alive by gathering before the Super Bowl to assemble soup packets for delivery to Russell Chapel Food Pantry.
We’ll meet at Hillel on Sunday, February 11th at 1 pm and should be done by 3 pm. With this event, we provide 400 nutritious meals each year to those in need, and the soup is so good that CBS has even received fan mail about it!
We will need quite a few more volunteers to make this event work, and we love having soup-makers of all ages. Donations toward the cost of ingredients are also welcome.
Coat Drive In this winter weather, some of our Columbia neighbors need winter coats, gloves, scarves and stocking caps, as well as blankets and sleeping bags, to stay warm.
Last month CBS members donated about a dozen coats to True North for domestic violence survivors and their children, as well as the overnight shelter, Room at the Inn.
Please take a minute or two to check your closets for winter coats, etc. that you can spare. A collection coat rack and a box are located just inside the sanctuary building.
