Lenten Outreach

This Lent, Catechetical Ministry will be collecting food items for our local families. Each week, please help your child to bring the in requested items. Spend some time talking with your child about the fact that many people go to bed hungry each night. Pray together that the food you offer along with many others can make a difference in the lives of our brothers and sisters in Christ.

1. Week of February 21 and 23: Bring in Breakfast items. (box cereal, oatmeal, cream of wheat..)

2.Week of February 28 and March 2: Bring in lunch items. (cans of soup, box of crackers, peanut butter, cans of fruit...)

3.Week of March 7 and 9: Bring in dinner items (bag of rice, bags or cans on beans, meal in a can, stews...)

4.Week of March 14 and 16: Bring in staples. (TP, tissues, flour, sugar, cake mixes...)

5.Week of March 21 and 23: Any of the above.

Don't forget to pray!
