Eight varieties of tantalizing soup, breads, bars and more will be available for a freewill offering from 5 to 8 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 11, at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, to raise funds for the Huron Ministerial Association’s Help Fund.
There are 15 to 20 churches in the Association, and each church will be providing food for the fundraising supper, said the Rev. Dean Trapp, president of the HMA. He serves Riverview United Methodist Church.
“The main thing that we do is help people who are just passing through town, we call them transients,” Trapp said. “Maybe they need a night’s rest, and we put them up in a hotel, or might need some food or gas.”
Each church pays a certain amount of money to the Association, based on their membership, and that money becomes the Help Fund.
“We were getting pretty low on funds about three years ago,” he said. “We were getting so many requests — that’s why we came up with the idea of the soup supper. We did not run out, but we were running low.
