All Saint’s Guild Dunham Soup Luncheon

A successful soup luncheon was enjoyed by many people on a beautiful fall day.

Early birds came and shopped at the bake table as well as at the new-to-you table.

At 12 o’clock Claire Hobbs welcomed everyone, and asked Peter Riordan to say the blessing. People then gathered around the buffet table for their choice of soup. We enjoyed a new soup – cream of broccoli, corn chowder, chicken, pear and vegetable beef.

The tables looked lovely, decorated for the autumn season.

Door prizes of squash and apples were won by Martha Dudley, Velma Symington, Barbara Harvey and Elizabeth Harvey. Congratulations

Following the meal, cards were played during the afternoon. Prizes went to Anita, Lisette, Christiane and Arlene.

Thank you all for coming.
