For a good cause ...



The Groveport United Methodist Church in Groveport, OH held our first Soup Swap in 2008. What fun! We used the Soup Swap to kick off our drive for the local food pantry. So in addition to taking home 6 delicious quarts of soup, we also collected 70-80 food items for the pantry.




The first soup picked and the person who picked the #1 each received a wooden spoon engraved on the back side with "GUMC 2008 Soup Swap." We had 15 different kinds of soups, with 13 attendees (plus some spouses to make it even more fun!). Soups ranged from chili, white chili, white bean and sausage, Mexican soups, vegetable soups, chicken noodle, and a tortellini soup -- yum, yum! With temperatures outside below freezing that evening, the thought of warm soup was delectable.
