MESH Report 12/18/18

image (1)From Captain Fern Henig:

The Carol Starr MESH Cafe served 24 guests last night and 1 take away.

Last night’s menu was: Egg Salad on a bed of lettuce with cucumbers and tomatoes, Alphabet vegetable soup, Baked salmon with dill sauce, Mashed potatoes, Honeyed carrots, Cupcake, tangerine, and bread pudding. Captain Fern was assisted by employees of HSBC and non-Shomrei friends.

Note: we had one vegetarian guest who was agitated there was not a special vegetarian main.

We will not be serving the evening of 12/25 but our MESH Cafe will be open on Tuesday, January 1.

If you would like to begin 2019 with a huge mitzvah in the books please sign up at shomrei.org/mesh

About MESH:

The Carol Starr MESH Cafe at Shomrei (Montclair Emergency Services for the Homeless) is a cooperative effort between the MESH organization and local synagogues and churches.  Volunteers at each institution cook and serve hearty, nutritious meals for the hungry. Shomrei’s turn is on Tuesday nights. A good meal, and perhaps as important, social interaction and companionship offer respite to those who need it. Please help fulfill this crucial mitzvah by volunteering.

To sign up to help, go to shomrei.org/mesh.
