Nourish your body and soul with homemade soup from the Sisters of St. Francis of the Providence of God. For their monthly Soup Take Out fundraiser on April 10, the Sisters are offering homemade Wedding Soup, Chicken and Dumpling Soup, or Beef Barley Soup.
A quart of soup is $5 and includes 2 dinner rolls. Orders must be placed by Thursday, April 4 by calling 412-885-7232. Soup orders can be picked-up on Wednesday, April 10 from 3:00 to 6:00 pm at the Sisters’ Motherhouse, located at 3603 McRoberts Road in Pittsburgh’s South Hills.
The Sisters host monthly takes out fundraisers throughout the year, where patrons are offered several homemade selections. Using fresh ingredients, Motherhouse chef Doug Brannock prepares healthier versions of soup by omitting additional salt. Wedding, their most popular soup, is always offered along with rotating selections that include Chicken Noodle, Broccoli, Potato, Vegetable Lentil, Chicken and Dumpling, and Acorn Squash, as well as other seasonal soups, Haluski and Chili.
Soup patrons looking for unique gifts may visit the Sisters’ Gift Shoppe, which is open during take out pick-up. Items offered include jewelry and accessories, Steelers themed gifts, baby items, holiday decorations, kitchen accessories, and the famous hand crocheted “scrubbers.”
All proceeds from soup, coffee and craft sales benefit the Sisters of St. Francis of the Providence of God
