Sandwiches for Shepherds

In keeping with our school board theme, “By Our Works, We Show Our Faith”, we will be participating in a sandwich making project for the Shepherds of Good Hope. In order to co-ordinate this class project, we are asking that each student contribute a suggested five dollars worth of supplies (e.g., bread, mustard, margarine, meats). In class on Friday, students signed up for a specific "ingredient" to bring in for Wednesday's sandwich making session.

Things to keep in mind:
  • A loaf of regular white bread makes approximately 10 sandwiches. 
  • A sandwich consists of two slices of bread, margarine, mustard, and one slice of meat. 
  • In order to make as many sandwiches as possible, the most economical ingredients should be used. 
  • No-name brand products are quite appropriate, as are items “reduced for quick sale” since the sandwiches will be consumed quite soon after their preparation. 
  • Meats such as bologna, ham, and mock chicken loaf are usually the least expensive luncheon meats available and very suitable for this project.
Although formal letters regarding this project were sent home Friday, a copy of the letter can be found HERE.
