The Feast of our patron saint, St. Vincent de Paul, is around the corner.
This year, we would like to honor or patron saint by living his message of feeding the poor and those in need. We are asking each grade level to bring the following items:
Grades Pre-K, Kindergarten, and First - Boxes of Cereal
Grade Two - Peanut Butter
Grade Three - Cans of Fruit
Grade 4 - Plastic Jars of Jelly
Grade 5 and Grade 6 - One Pound Bags of Rice and any kind of bagged Dried Beans
Grade 7 and Grade 8 - Canned Chicken
Our food drive will begin on Monday, September 11 and continue through the feast day of St. Vincent on September 27. Please prayerfully consider how your family can help those who are struggling with food insecurities at this time. Every little bit helps!
Perhaps your child(ren) could help you shop for those items or do chores to make money to help pay for the items donated.
St. Vincent de Paul’s legacy is his charity and compassion for the poor. We hope you’ll join us in teaching the children about how he modeled God to everyone and how they can do the same.
Thank you!
