HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The chaplains for law enforcement and the fire department in Hutchinson are going to feed those they serve on Christmas Day.

"Partnering with Elliott Mortuary and Hog Wild, we're going to feed all first responders who are on duty Christmas Day and who are serving our community," said Chaplain Richard Haley. "We're going to take meals to some and then some are going to come to our church and pick them up there."

Haley is a chaplain and the minister at Riverside Baptist at 1100 West 21st.

"Around 65 meals will be served," Haley said. "We appreciate also Village Inn at Thanksgiving and Hog Wild at Christmas helping with providing some of the food for that. Our church family is going to provide the rest, the different side items and things."

This is the first year for the chaplains to provide this service.
