Rachel's Women's Center Potluck

One of the guests enjoying the lunch prepared by UCSD Newman Center Catholic Community members.
On January 22, 2012, the young adult group, choir, and members of the UCSD Newman Center mission-based communities organized a potluck for Rachel's Women's Center in downtown San Diego. Over the last year, through programs such as Bridging The Food Gap, the women and staff at Rachel's have become our friends and partners in our mutual work of serving God by serving others. Members and volunteers of Rachel's have attended and spoken at our monthly Second Sunday Suppers and we have visited them almost biweekly to drop off bread and food that we pickup from Panera Bread and So Others May Eat.

Salad, drinks and dessert.
At last count, there were 24 people who cooked or prepared a dish for the potluck and 14 of those who drove down to Rachel's to serve and meet the women for lunch.

Our guests, at least 60 women, were so grateful and enjoyed the food. Some asked if we could come every weekend! Thank you all of those who participated in this event.
