From the Pittston Sunday Dispatch: Potato pancakes and soup on menu at Holy Mother of Sorrows Church

It was just what the doctor ordered, as the saying goes. The perfect foods to fill one’s belly on a cold, wintry day: hot soup and potato pancakes.

That’s what was on the menu at Holy Mother of Sorrows Polish National Catholic Church, Dupont, on Friday, Dec. 5, all topped off with an assortment of homemade desserts.

The annual fundraiser —“ a bargain at $6.00 per person —“ also featured a Chinese auction.

Lottie Hoban and Stella Kotula served as co-chairs for the event with Arnold Borc serving as ticket chairman.

You will notice the interesting crossover between Polish and Jewish foods – i.e., the potato pancakes or latkes. The event featured clam chowder – very New England, and a Chinese auction. Hmmm – who said the PNCC was “Polish only?” 😉
