With the cooler weather approaching, the season has come to dust off your crockpots, stockpots and Dutch ovens and make a pot of warm, satisfying soup. Soup is a liquid food (most often savoury, but sometimes sweet) served at the beginning of a meal or as a light meal by itself. Originally in France, the soup was the slice of bread on which was poured the contents of the cooking pot (potage). Soups can be classified into two broad groups-- clear soups and thick soups. Clear soup types consist of broths, consommé and bouillion. Sometimes with bread added to them, such as French onion. Thick soups can be subdivided according to the type of thickening used. Pureed soups are typically vegetable soups thickened with the starch contained in the vegetable. Bisques are made with pureed shellfish and generally thickened with Lori Gysel & Gerry Kentner Where Child Abuse Hurts Most cream and often have tomato added.

A chowder is a thickened soup with a roux and typically has potatoes included and enriched with milk or cream.

Thick, substantial soups with solid ingredients tend to be served in tureens made of earthenware, clay or fireproof porcelain.

Sometimes the worst scars of child abuse can't be seen. Whether physical or emotional, abuse attacks a child's self-esteem and emotional development, leaving long-term emotional trauma and pain. You can help prevent child abuse by being a nurturing parent or caregiver. By letting children know they are special, competent and loved, you can help them develop positive self-images and happier futures. If you feel overwhelmed, angry or frustrated as a parent, help is out there for you. Look in your area for support groups and services, or talk to a trusted friend, family member, pastor or doctor about what you can do to protect and support your child. If we all do our part to prevent child abuse, we'll get to the heart of the matter. Service Dial-in: 905-702-1629 SUNDAY WORSHIP SERVICES: 11:00 A.M.
