On Thursday, November 27 (6:30pm) the Toronto Buddhist Church (1011 Sheppard Avenue W) will hold another soup-packing event. This is to create ready-mix soup bowls with rice, lentils and seasonings for the less fortunate. Like an assembly line, they add individual ingredients to create a nourishing, hearty soup. It's a fun filled group activity serving a great need! They provide all ingredients, so just come to help pack.

#Trump admin renews #SCOTUS appeal to keep full #SNAP payments frozen

The request is the latest in a flurry of legal activity over how a program that helps buy groceries for 42 million Americans should proceed during the historic US govt #shutdown. Lower courts have ruled that the govt must keep FULL payments flowing, & SCOTUS asked the admin to respond after an appeals court ruled against it again late Sunday.

Trump told #states on Saturday to “immediately undo” any actions to provide full #FoodStamp benefits to #LowIncome families, threatening financial penalties if they do not comply. The late-night guidance from the #USDA adds to the uncertainty surrounding the nation’s largest anti- #hunger program during the govt #shutdown. Officials in several states said they remained unsure on Sunday how the directive would affect the roughly one in eight Americans who rely on #SNAP.

"They are not acting with charity, and in this sense the demonstration of agape. They are treating persons who are marginalized by circumstances with more than disrespect but malignant disregard."
