Lenten Almsgiving as a Parish

There will be two opportunities for you and your children to give within the parish this lenten season.

1 Satruday, February 28th following Vigil we will come together to pack Lazarus Bags for the homeless.

2.Breakfast Cereal Drive for the local food bank will take place on Sunday, March 15th as we celebrate the Sunday of the Cross. We ask that each family in the parish bring in at least one cereal (large bags prefered) to donate. This is a one day collection!

For our older children and teens keep an eye on the calendar for oportunites to serve at the Soup Kitchen.
