A Wrap on Free Lunch in 2024

On Friday, Dec 13 a large group of volunteers from UUS made spaghetti casserole, pasta primavera (vegan), green and fruit salads, and holiday cookies to serve to 117 hungry diners. Those helping were Bob Littlehale, Paul Gilbert, Mary Dix, Juli Statton, Theresa Ullerich, Dick Siefers, Carolyn Johnson, Mark Penno, Janet Mckee, Terri O’Berry, John Elson, Gare Calhoun, Caryl Lyons, and Cynthia Crawford. Frank Wildensee oversaw the cooking and Vicki Siefers purchased food from the Free Lunch fund for the casseroles. Those who helped by bringing salad fixings and fruit for the salads were Pete Brokaw, Virginia Stamler, Barb Haring, and David Quegg. The cookies were supplied by the Monday Daytime Covenant Group. The main dish was sponsored by Diana Miller and Carmen Griggs.

Next month the group will be using an arm roast donated to the Free Lunch program and making beef stew and a meatless vegetable soup, as well as the usual green and fruit salads. The next lunch is Friday, January 10. If you are interested in helping out at one of the shifts send an email to freelunch@uusic.org to get on the list to receive the Sign Up Genius invitation. Each shift is only 1 ½ hour long so you won’t spend your whole morning working and you will get a nice warm fuzzy feeling helping to fight hunger on a cold January day.
