Looking for a way to make a contribution to the community?
The Outreach Ministry will be hosting a drive-by collection for Lent on
Sunday March 7, 11:00 am- 1pm in the church parking lot.
Below are several projects which will benefit from your kindness!
Collection for the Legacy of Life Foundation - The Legacy of Life Foundation supports two life-sustaining women’s centers in Bristol and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They provide initial services for women experiencing crisis pregnancies and continue family support for over 3 years after the birth of the baby by assisting with basic needs and “life coaching”.
Currently, the most needed items are:
Pull-up Diapers - size 2T/3T; size 3T/4T; size 4T/5T
"Goodnites” Nighttime Underwear - ALL sizes
New Boys’ Full Outfits - sizes 2T and 3T
New Girls’ Full Outfits - sizes 2T and 3T
Monetary donations are always welcome and appreciated. Please make checks payable to "Legacy of Life Foundation” and write “St. Monica’s, Berwyn” in the memo.
The Great Valley Food Cupboard serves individuals and families in the TE and Great Valley School Systems. They provide food, cleaning products and other basic necessities. They have asked for wrapped Easter Candy or gift cards for Walmart and Target to help them meet the needs of their clients this spring.
Once again we will be collecting casseroles for the Blessed Sarnelli House in Kensington. This program serves a hot meal to over 150 people each day, many of whom are homeless and battling addiction. Please label with the date and contents of the casserole you are donating. Casserole pans can be found in the church narthex. Recipes below.
Our neighbors at Trinity House have been especially isolated during the pandemic. Many of the residents live alone and during this past year they have not been able to socialize with even the other residents.
Could you spare a few minutes to write a card or note of cheer???
Your words of encouragement will play an important role in reminding someone that they are thought of and cared about!
