The Good Shepherd Center Soup Kitchen

The Good Shepherd Center Soup Kitchen offers a continental breakfast and a hot noon-time meal to over 200 guests. The nutritious and comforting food and beverages that are offered at our Soup Kitchen come exclusively from donations of individuals, businesses, churches, grocery stores, food drives, schools, civic organizations and many others.

Meals are warmly served by volunteers within our community who generously donate their time, compassion and a listening ear.

It is through the generosity and compassion of many that we are most gratefully able to provide these much needed services.
