BENNINGTON â Every weekday in front of St. Peterâs Episcopal Church, on Pleasant Street, volunteers offer members of the public free hot drinks and pleasant conversation.
Itâs called the Community Coffee Pot project and it runs from 2 to 3:30 p.m. All are welcome to visit. The outreach sprouted from a meeting of the Greater Bennington Interfaith Council. It was born out of frustration about not being able to find daytime shelter the homeless this winter, said Mary McGuinness, a member of St. Peterâs who participates in the interfaith group. It started the first week of December.
