		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Ponoka Soup Kitchen is in great hands this year. Charlotte Boychuk, the administrator for Ponoka United Church says many people and businesses have been volunteering their time to help out. So many she says to the point that they had to put some people on hold. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;We have some new groups coming in that want to participate and want to offer their time and services, and I&#8217;m just overwhelmed by the support from the community with what they are doing here.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She says that it’s great that numbers are up for volunteers and thankfully, the numbers are down for those that actually need the service. She noticed that this year there weren’t as many mouths to feed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I think there is a couple of factors, I mean around Christmas people perhaps are home with their families and the weather has been much better than normal this time of year.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She also thinks that once the weather gets a little cooler they may have more in need, but either way they will never shut their doors.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;No matter what, regardless if it is 3 people or 10 people or 15 people were going to continue offering the service, and it is something that the groups that have offered their service are very happy to do.&#8221; </span></p>
