Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting of the Friendship Soup Kitchen at the New Covenant United Methodist Church

East Hartford, CT – The Friendship Soup Kitchen at the New Covenant United Methodist Church, formerly known as the EHIM Friendship Center, is now open at 16 Church Street. The new location opened following the closure of the beloved EHIM Friendship Center late last year.

The Friendship Soup Kitchen invites all to attend their ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, March 1 at 3:30 PM at the New Covenant United Methodist Church, 16 Church Street.

The soup kitchen is open Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 3:30-5:30 PM and is managed by Pam Douglas. The Soup Kitchen welcomes anyone in need of a meal to help fight food insecurity within our community.

The Soup Kitchen is made possible thanks to Connecticut Foodshare that delivers food items and produce, and a group of dedicated volunteers who help prepare and package the meals.
