Lenten Simple Supper

Contact: Jo Anne Robbins

Each Tuesday during Lent, St. George’s Mission and Outreach shared two recipes for a special Friday simple supper. The recipes were sent out by email each Tuesday and posted at the bottom of this web page. Each recipe includes the ingredients and directions for preparing a meal for a family of four – a simple soup, chili, or pasta dish.

Our outreach during Lent focused on sharing our recipes and the needed ingredients with families in the area through the Jonesville Helping Hands Food Pantry. When shopping for the ingredients for a recipe, purchase another bag of ingredients to share with a family in need in our community. Place the ingredients in one of our new purple outreach shopping bags that are available in the narthex hallway. Be sure to purchase and include a Price Chopper or Hannaford gift card for ingredients in the recipe that are not packaged or canned and to purchase a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk. Print a copy of the recipe and attach the gift card to it. Each Monday morning the filled bags left at the church will be delivered to the Jonesville Helping Hands Food Pantry.

Monday, April 18th was the last day for this community outreach program after which we will return to our regular routine for donations to support the food pantry.

If you are not able to shop, there are other ways to participate: 1) Mail a check made payable to St. George’s Church, 912 Route 146, Clifton Park, NY 12065 (with Outreach on the Memo line); or 2) On our website, click on the Give Online button and make your donation using your credit card. Your donations of food, cash and Price Chopper or Hannaford gift cards will be a rich blessing to families in need in the Clifton Park area.
