Police departments across the United States are joining together with faith communities to reinforce the connections between law enforcement and the citizens that they serve. This year Pikesville Precinct 4 of the Baltimore County Police Department has once again chosen to partner with the people of St. Charles parish to serve our neighbors in need, during the Annual Faith & Blue event. The officers and support staff of the Precinct that directly serves and protects us at St. Charles are promoting a food drive to stock our Parish Food Pantry. You can help by bringing canned goods and non-perishable food items for the Pantry when you come to Mass on Faith & Blue Weekend (10/8-10/9). Please see the flyer in next week’s bulletin for more information and a list of needed items. If you have any questions, please contact Lori Mooney at 410-241-6441 or lorimooney@verizon.net.
