On July 22nd at 6pm, St. Mark’s Lutheran Church-Clayton invites you to a Welcome Neighbor STL Supper Club to support immigrant families in St. Louis. Enjoy food, conversation, and catching up with friends – old and new. From cultural exchange to just plain fun, look forward to a great evening.

These meals present an opportunity for immigrant families to share knowledge and skills unique to them. It is also an opportunity for us to get a glimpse into their culture. These fundraising efforts can set them on a path of greater independence and confidence in their lives here in the USA.

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN DRINK.

The menu is $35 and contains:

MOROCCAN SALAD:

Carrot salad with Moroccan charmoula (Marinade of Herbs and Spices: cilantro, parsley, garlic, olive oil, and cumin).

AFGHAN SIDE:

Bolani: A popular street food and a crowd pleaser. Flatbread made of unleavened dough that is stuffed and pan fried, but its real beauty comes from the vegetable stuffing inside. Typically, the dough is stuffed in a variety of ways including mashed potato, or green and red lentils, leeks or chives, or pumpkin.
