The Blessed Sarnelli Community serves those most poor and vulnerable in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia. Students prepare a meal for 150 guests. Conversation is an important component of the ministry. The Sarnelli Community is not to be labeled a soup kitchen; rather, they are a hospitality center where dignity and attention are given to each individual along with a hot meal.
