The Lebanon Soup Kitchen celebrated 30 years of community service in 2019. During those commemorations, leaders estimated that the organization had served more than 650,000 meals.
That experience was desperately needed in 2020. Following a year of celebration, this has been a year of challenges. It began in March when social distancing rules first went into effect and the soup kitchen switched from serving meals in its space at the Lebanon First Christian Church to providing takeout service.
Just as the organization was making this switch, tragedy struck. Randy Peterson, the soup kitchenâs manager died unexpectedly on May 12. He was 51.
Volunteers at the non-profit mourned his loss while trying to maintain the service schedule.
