THANK YOU and God bless each and every one of those who participate and regularly contribute to keep the pantry with the much needed supplies which serves at least 60 people twice a month. We ask for donations of canned soup and stew, canned ravioli and pasta, canned tuna, peanut butter, jelly, cereals and canned juices. A heartfelt thank you to all who help keep our food pantry going all year. Only because you, as a parish, and our priests are committed to helping those less fortunate are we still able to distribute food twice a month. It’s a huge undertaking and we are extremely grateful for everyone’s help.
