Need for Soups and Chilis


In years past we have asked people to bring in their own recipes and their own crock pots for soups and chilis. This lead t0 80 crock pots that had to be cleaned...you can imagine the mess. It was also literally impossible to keep 80 crock pots hot. We had a couple people assigned to simply switching plugs every 10 minutes to keep them all hot and not blow a fuse.
So, we've started doing things a bit differently. We ask that you stick to 3 basic recipes and bring them in disposable containers. Ice cream buckets (5qt) work the best (so go buy some ice cream for your kids today). Otherwise, gallon ziplock bags or Gladware kind of things work great too.

Below are posted some student-favored recipes here soon for the 3 types of soup that we are going to have (Meat Chili, Vegetarian Chili, Chicken Noodle Soup). We'll also have cards at the Registration desk each Sunday for you to take home.

Also, because you are bringing these soups to church cold we ask that they all arrive on Thursday (Dec. 17th) so we can get an idea how much we have!
Thank you and more information to come!
