This Spring our partner parishes will be sending care packages to our members who are away at college. We are in need of items to include in the packages, such as Twizzlers; Swedish fish; Oreos; single-serve soups, mac-n-cheese, and oatmeal; pudding cups; Nutella spread; Pop Tarts; Rice Krispies treats; Wheat Thins; cheese crackers; peanuts; granola bars; fruit roll ups; microwave popcorn, etc. If you are interested in donating any of these items, a box has been placed in the main vestibule of our churches to accept your contribution. All items must be received by Sunday, March 5. Those who are interested in assembling the items for packaging are asked to contact Father Vincent. Thank you for this consideration as we remember our parish members who are away at college.

Like this post if you are willing to help your faith community. The Eucharist fulfills us with every grace and every blessing from Christ. This week’s ‘Faithful Challenge’ invites you to share those blessings. Reach out to our parish and learn how you can use your gifts to serve as minister to the homebound, or offer your support to a parish ministry that serves a need in your faith community. Visit the Eucharistic Revival resource page at www.DioceseofGreensburg.org/EucharisticRevival for videos, prayers and gathering dates.
