HOMELESS BAGS

Thank you for all you donations this far. Because of your generosity we have been able to make 400 bags to be distributed thus far. We recently made 100 bags for children. These were distributed to the children in need in Hartford for Christmas. They received snacks, warm hats and mittens.

We have currently collected $2300. All this money is matched by a generous donor. They will continue to match up to $100.

We are continuing this project. Our next assembly will be January 30. Our religious education students will be assembling an additional 400 bags.

We have created an Amazon link to make it a little easier for purchases.

We continue to collect in church and accept monetary donations.

The success of this endeavor is all because of your incredible generosity!

Thank you and God bless you all.

Due to the uncertainty of the weather in January and February, the Friday Rosary group will not meet.  However, private recitation of the Rosary on Fridays is an option.

Sandwich Collection

The Social Action Committee is resuming the monthly sandwich collection in September, after it being on hold since last year due to Covid-19. This much needed project provides food for the homeless who do not frequent shelters. The sandwiches are distributed by ImmaCare in Hartford.  The need is great, but thanks to contributions from volunteer “sandwich makers,” ImmaCare can provide help and comfort to these people. Making sandwiches is a good way to involve younger family members in this ministry.

• Any type of bread may be used.
• Two (2) slices of meat (such as ham, bologna, salami) & a slice of cheese per sandwich
• About one pound of meat is needed for a loaf of bread. You can vary the ingredients if you don’t have enough of one kind to finish the loaf.
• Please DO NOT put condiments or butter on the bread.
• Peanut butter & jelly sandwiches are also very popular.
• Sandwiches are individually wrapped, put back in the bread wrapper, twist-tied, and placed in the box in the church foyer.

The following are the dates through August 2022. You may wish to post this schedule on your refrigerator or bulletin board as a reminder.

(* Socks and T-shirts in adult sizes also collected in September and February.  **Juice boxes also collected in October and May).
