FREDERICK PLACE MEAL:  Calvary will be preparing the January 24, 2026 meal.  Menu is yet to be determined…perhaps a “tailgate” theme as a reminder of the Super Bowl on February 8th?  

SOUPER BOWL:  One month away!  We collect cans of soup for the Lakeland Pantry.  You can begin to bring in the cans or boxes or bags of soup at any time.  Put them in the shopping cart.
