President Krygsman was one of the celebrity servers who dished up in support of Living Rock鈥檚 Soupfest. This was the 12th annual event, with all the funds raised going to support the Hamilton ministry鈥檚 programs for youth-at-risk. 鈥淭his is just such a great event for the city,鈥 noted Dr. Krygsman. 鈥淚鈥檝e been here every year since I came to Redeemer, and everybody in Hamilton goes. It is a simple, enjoyable way for the community to get together in support of a wonderful ministry.鈥 As the guests walked through the Hamilton Convention Centre sampling the soups prepared by restaurants from across the region, Dr. Krygsman was able to meet all sorts of people, some who knew about Redeemer, and some who didn鈥檛. 鈥淚t鈥檚 great to talk to folks and share with them Redeemer鈥檚 mission and our impact on the community,鈥 he said. 鈥淭here is a lot of appreciation in the city for the work that we are doing.鈥 He also met a lot of alumni at the event: 鈥淚t was encouraging for me to see the impact that our students, current and former, are having in Hamilton. A lot of alumni are supporting ministries like Living Rock, either by working or volunteering, or through their presence at events like this. Redeemer truly is a part of, and a partner with, Hamilton.鈥 All the proceeds from Soupfest will support Living Rock Ministries.
