For years, Oasis Central Minnesota has sponsored Share-A-Meal where different organizations offer to supply/prepare the food and serve a free meal to the community. On hiatus because of the coronavirus, the program has recently started up again with drive-up distribution. Sister Clara Stang, a member of the Oasis board, approached Amy Scholl about having FSLF sponsor a meal. Amy asked for volunteers and donations to cover the cost of the food. With Erin Nash’s expertise, the cost per meal was $2.26. Generous donations exceeded the costs, allowing FSLF to donate an addition $148 to Oasis. Thank you!

On hand for distribution were Sister Cordy Korkowski, Maureen Gertken, Sisters Clara Stang and Ange Mayers.
