Volunteers needed!!

Can you help with any of the following projects at St. Thomas? if so, please email Sherry at sscott@dsj.org

"No-Sew" Blankets, outreach project for EHC

A few of the CM classes are going to make "no-sew blankets" for Emergency Housing Consortium. I need a few parents to stay during the 4 and 7pm class times This week and next to prep and cut fleece. Also, if any parents would like to donate fleece (Hancock fabrics has loads of it) one blanket takes 2 yards each of 2 coordinating colors of fleece (usually one solid and one print) Stop by and take a look when you drop off on Tuesday!

Lenten Soup Supper and Stations of the Cross

Friday, Feb. 26, 6-8pm. I am looking for folks to help to organize this event. It starts with a potluck soup and bread dinner followed by the students leading us in Stations of the Cross. We have a planning meeting set for Tuesday, Feb. 9 at 7:15pm in Becket Hall.

St. Patrick's Celebration

Saturday, March 13, 6:15-9:30pm. First planning meeting is Tuesday, Feb. 16. 7:15pm in Becket Hall. We need folks to organize volunteers to serve food and drink, coordinate with our Irish Dance troup, sell tickets and decorate the hall. If you can help, please email me. Many hands make light work!

Vacation Bible Camp

We will be teaming up with our neighbor parish, Sacred Heart to put on SonQuest Rainforest the week of June 14-18. This event takes months of planning. Our task for February is to duplicate and label all of the music CDs that will be given out to campers when they register. This event is perfect for teens or the young at heart. A CD burning and labeling party will be held at St. Thomas on Tuesday, Feb. 23 during the 4 and 7pm class times.
