Hi, Charlotte--
I just received the link to the F for F Blog site. Nice Work! What do the other participating congregations have to provide you in order to have us linked with the blog? I notice you have a link to Center Church and the Center Church Missions Committee. Having links to the Granby UCC, the UMC of Holyoke, South Hadley & Granby, as well as Our Savior Lutheran Church is also important.
The United Methodist Church of Holyoke, S. Hadley & Granby's website is www.thesteepleinthefalls.org
Please let me know if there is anything else you need from me.
Thanks!
Louise

I sent an email to Joe Nadeau

Hi Jim,
I do have your "Food for Friends' Blog site address. I also would like to set up a co-ordinated 3 month combined menu for the three groups.
Once I have the five meals scheduled for the next three months how do I enter them into your blog?
As for suggestions for sandwich meats, I wouldn't use cold cuts. I plan on making meatloaf , chicken salad, ham salad, tuna salad, or sliced ham sandwiches or even sliced turkey or sliced chicken sandwiches. The chemicals in deli meats don't go over to big with my nutritionist. Other cold meals I have thought about are pasta salads, egg salads, potato salads etc...etc..
So.... it appears the the first thing to be done is get the list of meals prepared. Because our weekend for October is a Holiday weekend, We also will be making two meals for the 11th and 12th of the month. The hot meal will be chicken pot pie, with roll, and for desert it will be sliced peaches, and cookies. The cold meal will be chicken salad sandwiches, potato salad, fruit cocktail and cupcakes. as soon as I know what it will be in November and December I will let you know. November we will be doing two meals on the 8th and the 29th. So the faster we get this done the easier it will be for all three groups.
Has anyone contacted St. Pats yet?
I will be watching your blog everyday
Thanks again

Hi Joe
Do not know if you have our "Food for Friends" Blog site address yet - try the link below:
http://southhadleygranbyfoodforfriends.blogspot.com/
I would like to setup a co-ordinated 2-3 month combined menu of our three groups - your group, St. Pat's, and our group - so that we may complement each other's menu's.
By listing the names of the meals we would eliminate duplication within the chosen time frame.
Also do have any suggestion for cold meals (sandwiches)? Since we are delivering on Saturday, we would like to add something for Sunday for our clients.

Food and the menu
Hi
A little information to consider for our journey
We are providing for the "Elderly" who have some simple needs - Soft/paliable, low salt/fat/seasoning levels - and a simple "menu" of entree, vegetable, fruit, carb (bread type, ie. sliced, roll, biscuit, dumpling), and dessert.
Plus we are doing this for a Saturday delivery and we should consider a cold meal to be for Sunday. A sandwich with a fruit and possibly another desert.
I have a list of possible Saturday entree's but I'm in need of a few suggestions for the sandwich meal.
I believe this blog will help us communicate with the community and may produce suggestions from the public.

Dear Friends,
Yesterday, I delivered our membership application to the Food Bank for Western Massachusetts where it was accepted.
The membership fee is $100 instead of $125.
We were reclassified from being a program that serves "the elderly" to an "emergency" program. I'm not exactly sure why this was done, but the good news is that we will receive all of our food free-of-charge through grants from both the state and federal governments.
There will be a training session for our official shoppers at the Food Bank on Friday, October 2 from 9:00 to 10:00 AM. CATHY AND JIM please reply to this email to let me know if you can attend. We can send up to three people. Among other things, you will receive an ID card which will be needed to receive food. The Food Bank is located at 97 North Hatfield Road in Hatfield (phone 247-9738, Jill Tarr's extension is 134; she will conduct the training session.)
Jill will make a site inspection visit to our kitchen before October 17th. I'll arrange the date and time with her and notify Cathy and Jim.
We're in good shape and getting ready to GO!

Update 9-15-09
Charlotte,
Attached is the volunteer worksheet from Sunday at Our Savior Lutheran
In addition to Steve Foster advising us that he is ServSafe Certified and is a chef – he and is wife, Gail, also expressed interest in the kitchen coordinator and shopping coordinator roles – so that should also be discussed with them.
Lisa O’Malley is entertaining the “Kitchen Coordinator” role but I get the sense she needs to work out time schedules with her husband/children…she does plan to attend the October 3 training session.
There are 2 names – Margit Hart and Katrina Dziedzic….where it is difficult to decipher if I have the spelling correct on their names and e-mail addresses – but the telephone numbers are legible.
Kim Paul did not identify what role she wishes to play – I believe she plans to do that on October 3.
Just a reminder – you and your team will want to clarify the training schedule on October 3 with the volunteers from Our Savior Lutheran – as mentioned in an earlier e-mail, the bulletin stated “4PM”…
You certainly have a great volunteer base to work with in this Ministry!
Kathleen

Dear Stephanie,
We had a wonderful morning at Our Savior Lutheran – everyone was very welcoming – Deb did a terrific job with the service – Sarah’s message to the children tied in with Take and Eat’s Program beautifully…11 congregants signed up to volunteer in various capacities…one of those is a chef and ServSafe Certified (Steve Foster) and could be the 2nd Cook…another individual (Lisa O’Malley) is considering the position of “Kitchen Coordinator” – she will be at the October 3rd training meeting.
One thing which will need to be corrected in your next bulletin and perhaps reinforced by an announcement by you is the time of the Training Meeting at Center Church on October 3…the bulletin states that it is at 4PM, but the notes I had from Charlotte states “2PM – 4PM”…
I will be compiling the volunteer lists identifying their contact information and areas of interest and e-mail them to you and to Charlotte…we are enroute to New York and will not be back in the office until Tuesday but I wanted to let you know that we were very pleased to be with your congregants this morning and feel the response to the Take and Eat Program was extremely positive…
Thanks again – we’ll stay in contact and look forward to being with everyone for the first meal on October 17.
Blessings,
Kathleen and Deacon Frank

Dear All,
I've changed our hours of operation to 8:30AM to 12:30PM.
Charlotte's excellent attention to details will clear up the source of
client/friend's names. Seeking additional names from the Councils on
Aging in South Hadley and in Granby still needs to be decided. If we
decide to go forward on this, when would be the best time to do it?
Charlotte's volunteer list includes, by my count, about 48 persons, an
impressive number at this time and includes a growing number of
non-Center Church individuals. More will be needed to top off this
solid base.
There is a new priest coming to All Saints Episcopal Church. Should we
reach out to them? If so, by whom and when?
In great hope,
Allan
