Each year during the Souper Bowl of Caring, youth groups across the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America creatively and enthusiastically lead their congregations to respond to Jesus\' call to ‘Go and do likewise’. Each year the ELCA World Hunger Appeal gratefully receives many donations from Souper Bowl collections to serve hungry neighbors around the corner and around the world. I thank God for these servant leaders and ask for God\'s blessings on all who give and receive through the Souper Bowl of Caring.
The Rev. Mark S. Hanson, Presiding Bishop
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
