Thanksgiving Food Drive
Though it’s hard to believe, it’s
November already. The circulars in
this weekend’s papers include the ads for
turkey and all the trimmings. Each year our
parish family provides for families in need through
the annual Thanksgiving Food Drive, coordinated
by our dedicated St. Vincent de Paul Society.
Please remember those in need as you begin your
Thanksgiving preparations. Canned items (please,
no glass containers or perishable items) can be
brought to our parish churches at any time. We will
come together as a family of faith to prepare the
Thanksgiving baskets on Tuesday, November 13
th
at 7:00 p.m. in St. Thomas Church. Each family
is asked to bring a decorated box to put the food in.
Our young people will lead us in prayer, and then
each family will prepare a basket for a struggling
family. Those who participated last year found this
to be a real time of family prayer and cause for
thanksgiving for the gift of family life.
