Soup's On!

bowl of tortilla soup

 We talk a lot about the Union Gospel Mission being "More than Soup," but truth be told, soup can be a delicious, nutritious meal, and we eat a lot of it around here. There's a pot on the stove every day of the week. Help us make it a great pot. Send us your favorite soup recipe. You can paste it into the comment section below or email it to info@uniongospelmission.org. We’ll pick one to make with the residents in the kitchen and post a picture on social made with any recipes we receive. So . . . hit us with your most delicious, most nutritious, most irresistible SOUP!
