A Ministry to Westerly/Stonington Homeless

"Like clockwork, for the past 10 years, the Chili Man has been found at the WARM Center's soup kitchen, cooking dinner on the first Friday of every month.

"The Chili Man is Scott Piscatelli, who first started cooking the meal as part of a three-person church-group effort. He transitioned into a solo venture when the other church members were unable to continue.

“In addition to cooking meals for those who visit the Westerly shelter's soup kitchen, Piscatelli cooks for a population of homeless people who live in tents in the woods. It's this subset of the region's homeless who came up with his nickname."

A recent Westerly Sun article reported on Scott and Danielle Piscatelli's ministry to the homeless in the Westerly, RI/Stonington, CT area.
