Join us at the 10:30am Mass on September 8th for our Blessing of the Backpacks!
Bring your backpack to be blessed and consider bringing an extra one to donate to our friends at Mary House. All backpacks will receive blessings from Father Andy to kick off the new school year.
We are also accepting donations of various school supplies for Mary House. Donations will be collected on the Church Patio after both the 8:30am and 10:30am Masses.
Their kids need:
new backpacks
pencil pouches
plastic pencil boxes
stickers for decorating
# 2 pencils
new crayons and markers of all sizes
Mary House is a community-based transitional organization that provides housing and support services to low-income immigrant and refugee families. Our goals as an organization are twofold: to provide a stable and nurturing environment for vulnerable families and to build customized support programs aimed at building their independence and self-sufficiency.
Let's come together to spread joy and support as the new school year begins!
