Saint Paul Institute Intercultural encounter and community outreach brings meals and smiles to the local community during the Lenten Season.

During the 2026 Lenten season, the staff and students of Saint Paul Institute (SPI) united in a heartfelt mission of solidarity and charity, voluntarily saving their personal funds to support the vulnerable members of the local neighborhood. Driven by a shared commitment to compassionate service, the campus community dedicated their time and resources to prepare fresh, nutritious meals and desserts for nearby residents in need.

On the afternoon of Monday, March 30, 2026, the institute welcomed over 100 local elderly citizens and young children to receive freshly prepared food packages and sweet treats. Beyond simply offering nutritional support, the event served as a meaningful platform for intergenerational connection, bringing bright smiles and comforting conversations to both the young and old who attended.

This initiative was organized with the primary goal of putting faith into action by sharing love, promoting fraternity, and deepening the bond between Saint Paul Institute and the surrounding community. Through small acts of kindness and direct engagement, SPI continues to foster a culture of empathy, service, and civic responsibility among its student body while standing alongside its local neighbors.
