Souper Bowl of Caring

The Souper Bowl of Caring is the result of thousands of young people joining together to fight hunger and poverty in their local communities. This unique, youth-led movement of caring is transforming the nation's biggest weekend of football into its largest weekend of giving. Since the program started in 1990, over $41 million has been raised for local charities across the country. Join the team at www.souperbowl.org.

On Sunday, February 1, join us at Bradley UMC at any worship service (8:30, 10, 11) to recognize, learn and pray for ways to end world hunger. Holy Communion will be celebrated as a unique time for us to remember how we are fed and in what ways God calls us, through Jesus, to act as agents of Caring in a hungry world. If you attend, you are encouraged to bring a canned good with you as youth will be standing at the entrances and exits of the Sanctuary to collect canned goods and financial support to go directly to the Hancock County Food Pantry.
