At JourneyBe, under Rev. John Payne’s leadership, we are totally inclusive and welcoming to everyone. Soup’s On is a perfect example of this inclusive and compassionate service. So, let’s celebrate together our love of life, appreciation for our communities and the value of compassionate service at the Winter Fiesta on Feb. 23.
