We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

St. Peter’s Vegetable Soup delivered March 1

This is an ECW project to deliver soup to 18 families in the area that we have not seen as much during the pandemic.

The plan – Nancy, Sylvia, Cookie, Andrea, Barbara, and Elizabeth will each make 8 servings of this vegetable soup and bring it over to the parish house by 10:30 on Monday, March 1, Cookie and Nancy have agreed to stir it up and package it. Then, Andrea, Nancy, Cookie, Catherine, and Elizabeth will deliver it by 12:30 that day. Catherine is going to make bread to include with the soup, Becky will get the containers. Elizabeth will write little notes to include with the soup. As a bonus Andrea also contributed chicken soup.

The soup used is a combination of recipes from ECW members.
