Regina congregation helps feed the hungry

Preparing supper at Souls Harbour Rescue Mission

REGINA – On May 17, members of New Beginnings Lutheran Church cooked up supper for people in need. Congregation members volunteered at Souls Harbour Rescue Mission, where they prepared a meal of shepherd’s pie. More than 300 people were fed through their work.

The congregation has volunteered with and raised money for Souls Harbour Rescue Mission for many years. In recent months, the congregation has assisted in a variety of ways, including serving another meal of shepherd’s pie in April, preparing more than 500 cupcakes for Souls Harbour’s Easter Dinner, and sponsoring additional meals such as a February meal of pork loin, mashed potatoes, and vegetables.

“We are so blessed to be able to share the gifts God had given us,” the congregation writes in a social media post about May’s meal. 

Souls Harbour Rescue Mission is a Regina-based organization which seeks to “rescue people from poverty and addiction by offering the Gospel message through emergency help, such as food, clothing, and shelter,” as well as through recovery programs.
