The Salvation Army continued its outreach programme yesterday with a Christmas luncheon for the underprivileged at its headquarters at Reed Street, The City.
Over 350 partook of the meal which included ham, turkey, macaroni pie, rice and peas, baked chicken and ice cream.
There were two servings, one at noon and the other at 2 p.m.   
Divisional Director for Women’s Ministries Vevene Jonas thanked companies who contributed to the event’s success.
 “Usually people would come out and tell you thanks but from the response this year it seems as though a lot of [people] appreciated the luncheon,” Jonas said.
“You can see that people appreciated and needed the luncheon,” she added.
