The John & Frances Ice Soup Kitchen & Food Pantry operates a curbside service at the Sacred Heart Parish Hall (106 Exchange St.) every Sunday from 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM. Pre-packaged food bags are available for pick-up from 4:00 PM -5:00 PM every Sunday. One bag per family per weekend. To-go meals are available for pick-up beginning at 4:00 PM every Sunday while supplies last. All those in need of food are welcome!
This endeavor is possible through the generous bequest of John & Frances Ice. John & Frances were parishioners of Sacred Heart for over 50 years. John passed away in August 2017. Frances passed away in July 2018. Having no children of their own, they left their entire estate to Sacred Heart with the stipulation that the funds be used to exclusively benefit the poor.
