I am your servant
When first asked to lead this mission I thought why me? I'm not a natural leader. The web site and the materials were remarkable painless. My 6 year old daughter did the announcements I wrote for her during the children's message. The elementary class made cans and collected money at the door before and after church. They were hard to refuse. We had a goal of $100 and 100 cans of food. (Last year we collected $57) They raised 178.28 and 200 grocery items. Next year I won't have to have my arm twisted...Starview United Church of Christ and Starview United Church of Christ

Souper Bowl Rematch 2012
In 2011, my high school catechism class participated in the Souper Bowl of Caring as a service project by promoting a contest between our three priests. Our rector loves football and the Dallas Cowboys, so each priest got a team, and parrishioners decided who won the Souper Bowl by donating their cans to the team they wanted to win: Father John's Cowboys, Father Scott's Saints, and Father Miguel's Dolphins. The kids had a lot of fun making pep signs and working the collection, and everyone thought...St. James Cathedral and St. James Cathedral

Souper Bowl of Caring
What a great first time volunteer morning with the Houston Food Bank & HEB for the Souper Bowl of Caring Food Drive! Met another friendly local volunteer and together we politely and enthusiastically informed the Sunday morning shoppers about the food drive and how, in fact, little it costs to feed a family of four for up to three days! Most shoppers happily placed a $3.80 bag in their carts. One shopper initially declined but then talked herself into donating TWO bags! Her school donated nearly...None
