Rolland-Warner Student Council volunteers at Soup Kitchen

About 30 members of the Rolland-Warner Student Council are volunteering at the Soup Kitchen at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Lapeer.

The crew is working December 10 and 17th and again on January 7th to help out with the meal that's served to needy and homeless people in the Lapeer area.


The students also got to use their sorting skills to help organize canned goods, and when the meal was over, they washed the dishes.

The Soup Kitchen rotates each weekday between five local churches. The other Lapeer churches include First Presbyterian, Grace Episcopal, Trinity United Methodist and Church of Christ.
