The Holiday Season is Here!
The holidays are often a wonderful time, however, it can also be a tough season for many of the folks who come to the Kitchen. Focused on creating a compassionate community, we offer additional services during the holiday season.
This is our busiest time of the year and we love it!! Please consider volunteering or making a financial or in-kind donation during the holidays.
Thanksgiving
Baskets: St. Peter’s will distribute over 100 food baskets the week before Thanksgiving. We are still in need of pies!! (sweet potato and pumpkin especially)
Thanksgiving Meal: on Thanksgiving (Nov 24th) at noon, we will serve a full holiday meal at the Kitchen.
*If you are interested in volunteering, please call (235-6511) or email (info@stpeterskitchen.org) for more information.

Toy Store: every year, we run a toy store where community members can pick out new toys and gifts for children in their household (children 12 and under). If you are interested in signing up to “shop” in the Store, please come to St. Peter’s during lunch (12-1) Monday-Friday from now until November 15.
