20th Anniversary Celebration of Curbing Hunger

The celebration continues on Charter Day. Please stop by the Parish Hall to browse the art available for purchase. Proceeds will benefit Curbing Hunger. 

Charter Day!
In order to have a successful Charter Day on May 17th, I need a little help from some of you. This year we are having a bake sale, so I need volunteers to bake and individually package those baked goods. We will also be offering free colored hair spray for anyone interested (mostly children) and I need some volunteers to help with that and to help man the booth. Time slots available are:

10:00 am - noon (includes set up)
Noon - 2:00 pm
2:00 pm -4:00 pm
4:00 pm - 6:00 pm (includes clean up)

Please e-mail me or call me if you can help at cnoel11770@gmail.com or 908-350-3371. Thank you! Chris Marshall
