Union Gospel Mission to Serve 400 Meals Easter Sunday
Portland, Ore., - Union Gospel Mission (UGM) will hold its annual Easter Brunch on Sunday, April 5 at 12pm at 3 NW Third Avenue in Portland. UGM is working to make the holiday a little extra special for those experiencing homelessness, especially since many are separated from family and can’t have a typical celebration.
In all, Union Gospel Mission will provide more than 3,200 special holiday meals. The holiday meal service kicked off Friday, March 27 when the Mission packed 500 Easter food baskets, which provide 2,500 Easter meals for families who are housed but unable to provide Easter meals for their families. This week, leading up to Easter, the Mission is serving more than 360 Easter meals during their Search + Rescue mobile outreach to camps.
UGM is preparing to serve at least 400 meals Easter Sunday which will include scrambled eggs with diced ham and cheddar cheese, biscuits and sausage gravy, fruit salad, a pastry, coffee, juice, and a snack sack for later in the day. Guests will have the option of dining in or having a meal to go.
“We look forward to welcoming each guest with a big smile and large plate of food and the hope found in Easter,” says Matt Stein Executive Director.
