Everybody is going to get to know each other in the pot.

The Bruce Bacca Soup Kitchen went from 2-6pm on Saturday December 25th, 2010, which happened to align with the customarily recognized birth day of Jesus Christ.

Tognac Dekline, head of nutrition for the Church of Bruce Bacca, selected a 98% vegan recipe for a potato, celery, onion, carrot soup. The soup was flowing all afternoon on this cold, rainy day to any hungry souls who entered. All agreed it was a delicious blend, physically, spiritually, and emotionally warming. Even the 2% pregnant woman had a bowl.

Many thanks to sous chef and barker Jaime Borschuk, whose band “The Matinees” is about to release their third album on vinyl, which you can pre-order here on Kickstarter.

Bruce Bacca cookies and sandwiches were distributed throughout the afternoon and into the night by the UP Walrus.

The Church of Bruce Bacca is a temporary place of worship, deifying “Die Hard (1988)” – era Bruce Willis. As it is discouraged to gaze upon his image any longer, he is obscured by an exquisitely carved wooden Chewbacca mask. Also available at the Church are pocket prayer idols and the short(er) film “Incident at Nakatomi”, a pious remastering of the original “Die Hard” in which the image of Bruce has been completely removed. You can visit the Church of Bruce Bacca at 248 Fillmore St. in San Francisco through the end of January, at which time closing ceremonies will be taking place.

Yipee – Ki – Yay.
