Pinner from front Knowing that his next scheduled outreach to die homeless wouldn't happen before the cookies would grow stale, Shafer suggested passing them along to Faith Missionknown for providing meals to the Elkhart community over the past 57 years. ■ Knowing that Shafer had a goal of starting a Soup Kitchen in Nappanee, Lehman was inspired to introduce the idea at Faith Mission while delivering the cookies. "That's really one of die people to thank for all of this," said Shafer. "She really got the ball rolling on all of this. She's the one who approached her pastor about having die Soup Kitchen there at the church. She's die one who introduced the idea to the staff at Faith Mission that day and said, 'is there any way to make this possible?' She's just been unbelievable in her dedication to all of this." Lehman's efforts came in the heels of Swihart and Shafer initially discussing the matter and beginning to explore the idea. Church Supported The final piece of the puzzle came into place after Shafer was asked to speak about his outreach to the homeless to die congregation at Nappanee Church of the Brethren. The church immediately embraced his program setting out collection boxes for donations to be passed on to die homeless. In addition the congregation expressed interest, and the board voted in favor, to offer support toward housing a Soup Kitchen. "We really thought there was a need," said Pastor Byri Shaver. "We wanted to meet that need. And everyone is welcome inside our doors." Community United 'Tm pleased my vision could be fulfilled and that the people in Nappanee care for each other enough to make this happen," said John Shafer. He joined with Faith Mission and Nappanee Church of the Brethren to invite Nappanee area residents to begin the coming Christmas season with goodwill and loving outreach to man by coming to the table with area neighbors and enjoying a free meal, 5-6 pm, December 9—and every Monday and Thursday to follow—at Nappanee Church of the Brethren, 301 Mac Drive.
