“A word or smile is often enough to put fresh life in a despondent soul.”
– St. Therese of Lisieux
Our Easter Distribution was a great success thanks to you! We helped 40 families that included 193 people, 79 adults and 114 children with a plentiful Easter dinner, Easter treats and much more! Thanks to Fr. Ron and the office staff for supporting our work. We could not do it without you.
We want to especially thank you, our wonderful parishioners, who continue to give so generously despite the high cost of food. Another huge thank you goes out to our Faith Formation “Discover Your Church” families who made it possible to supply each family with soaps, toiletries and paper products. Finally, thank you to those who donated make-up, body wash, lotions, and other health and household items.
We have once again been chosen by Meijer to receive the donations of their Spring Simply Give Campaign running from Easter Sunday, March 31 through Saturday, June 29. Just as in previous campaigns, Simply Give displays will be out at each Church entrance. Please take a card from the display and take it to Meijer on 24 Mile Road and Hayes to purchase any number of $10 donations you’d like to make. You only need one card to make one or more donation purchases.
Please continue to keep our pantry list in mind this week as you shop at stores or on-line.
