Review for Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

In the interest of full disclosure, I coordinated the volunteer program at Holy Apostles for five years in the mid-90's, but I still talk about my time there as one of the richest, most challenging, most hope-giving times of my life. Holy Apostles manages to feed a daunting number of people every day in a place of beauty and real hospitality. The volunteers were some of the best people I've ever encountered, the staff hard-working and dedicated, and the guests taught me about hope in the midst of hopelessness nearly every day. Whenever I encounter someone going to New York City, I always, always recommend that they visit--or, even better, volunteer at--Holy Apostles. It's one of the best examples of beauty, hospitality, and justice that I know.
