You Did it to Me:
Lenten
Justice & Charity
Our Lenten giving continues as we look to achieve our goal of providing food and water to those who hunger and thirst.
Minnehaha Food Shelf -
Each March Minnesota FoodShare runs the largest food drive in the state and restocks food shelves across Minnesota. During March your financial contribution is matched by generous grants from Minnesota corporations and foundations. With your cash donation this month, food shelves can purchase fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy all year long. Envelopes are available on the donation boxes at the entrances of the church. Place your financial contribution in the envelopes and deposit them in the weekend collection or you can drop them off at the parish office by March 31st. We are also collecting non-perishable lunch items this week in the donation boxes.
