Did you know our communion shortbread is homemade? We are looking for help from someone who loves baking and doesn't think it's cringe that the secret ingredient is love. This is about a once-a-month commitment, with the option to make & freeze multiple batches as works for you. Email Lauren at clerk@hotmetalbridge.com for the recipe.

💕 PRESSLEY RIDGE DONATION DRIVE
Sundays, Now-May 31
May is National Foster Care Month, a topic near and dear to several Hot Metal families and individuals. All month long, we will be collecting items for Pressley Ridge, which supports thousands of children each year through safe and nurturing foster homes. Then on Sunday, May 31, a representative from Pressley Ridge will join us to receive our gifts and share more about the impact of foster care. Needed items:
🍩 VOLUNTEER AT HAZELWOOD FOOD PANTRY
First Saturdays of every month: Next is June 6
7:30-10:30 AM @ Spartan Community Center of Hazelwood
(134 E Elizabeth St)
For years, Fishes & Loaves Cooperative Ministries has been providing free groceries to Hazelwood neighbors in the very space we worship in, and Hot Metallers have begun serving breakfast to those waiting in line. No RSVP is needed, just arrive ready to assist neighbors with love, dignity, and a passion for donuts. (Breakfast at 7:30, food distribution at 9 AM, volunteer for either or both.)
💔 PRAYER VIGIL AT ICE OFFICE
Every Friday: 8:30-9:30 AM
Hot Metal is Hosting on June 19
ICE Pittsburgh (3000 Sidney St, Pittsburgh, PA 15203)
If you’ve ever wondered what to do when the news feels overwhelming, this is one place to start. Every Friday, we choose to be present in a place where fear and uncertainty are very real. We gather outside the ICE office on the South Side with Casa San José and other faith communities to sing, to pray, and to remind all of Pittsburgh that our faith demands dignity for all people.
