In Lawrence, Volunteers Celebrate The Return Of Hot Meals

LAWRENCE, MA - OCTOBER 2: Lawrence Mayor Dan Rivera, left, and Cardinal Sean O'Malley walk together into the Cor Unum Meal Center in Lawrence, MA, where the volunteer staff serves hot meals to those in need, on Oct. 2, 2018. For the first time since a series of explosions killed one young man, injured two dozen, and left some 8,600 customers in Lawrence, North Andover, and Andover without gas, the nonprofit will once again be able to cook free hot meals for its community. City and state leaders gathered at the Salem Street meal center Tuesday, when Cardinal Sean P. OMalley announced that Cor Unum had its ovens back.
