Loaves and Fishes Hospitality OutreachOn the second Saturday of every month, folks from Calvary Chapel Southbury volunteer time at the Loaves and Fishes Soup Kitchen in New Milford, Connecticut. At the soup kitchen, volunteers serve up a hot meal, often homemade, along with a smile and a listening ear to all who enter.
Everyone eating a meal at Loaves and Fishes also receives a bag lunch to take with them when they leave. There are lulls in the serving, as the customers ebb and flow, until the last meal is served at 5:30 p.m. Afterwards, the crew cleans up, finishing about 6:00 p.m., and heads out, tired but happy, satisfied that they have served Jesus by serving those He loves. We welcome you to come and serve with us. Meet us either 2:30 p.m. at the church or, if you live closer, you can meet us by 3:00 p.m. at the Loaves and Fishes Soup Kitchen. For more information, please email Lea Leclerc.

Our
volunteers realize that they are the face of Jesus and His smile
to those on the other side of the counter and take that very seriously.
They treat the visitors as paying customers, looking to provide
the best service that they can. People from all walks of
life are welcome when mealtime begins at 4:30 p.m. There
is lively conversation as the workers scramble around the kitchen
to see that every dinner is served.
