Meets the last Saturday of each month to prepare soup and bag lunches for those in the Benton community who receive Meals-on-Wheels and other homebound people. The ministry ensures that these recipients receive at least one warm meal on the weekend. Servants gather to cook, bag, clean or deliver the soup and lunches.

2024 Dates:

In December we will distribute Souper Saturday Christmas Boxes-see event below

Every year we give the Souper Saturday crew a month off. During this time of year, some people are not home while they are spending time with their families. What we do is create a food box that we can deliver anytime after Thanksgiving but before the 15th of December so that the recipients of Souper Saturday can plan their holiday meal. A list of items to put in the box will be provided. All items will be regular sizes - not the family or bulk sizing. Each item was selected to fit in the box if the basic sizes are selected. Please do not add extra or veer from the list. Each person who gets these boxes should get the same items as another - different brands are OK.

This ministry meets people at one of the most devastating times of their lives and helps the recovery process begin, all while the fire is still burning. The Fire Recovery Ministry is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.

How it works: The fire chief or fire fighter calls and the team responds immediately with the fire box and their servant partner (preferably male and female). Then, the team will arrive at the house (ID cards are issued by the fire chief), meet the family, and do what is called for at that time. Often,  they need hugs, answers to questions about what is next, and most importantly, to pray with them. If you are interested in this ministry, training is available.
