Striving to know, love, and serve God in all others.
The Social Ministry Committee is trying to be sensitive not only to the needs we see in the community, but also respectful of the generous support of all our efforts, collections, and initiatives. from members of the parish. We are making a conscious effort to balance and spread out throughout the year the various requests we make of parishioners. For instance, this year we are moving the request for winter coats from the pre-Christmas time to early fall. Our Christmas gifting will be limited to the needy in 14469, 14424, and 14425 zip codes, adding only families associated with our Lady of Guadalupe Mission. The number of gifts per child will be limited and once again we will verify with other local agencies that families are not on multiple lists. We all know the needs are great. We are diligent to be good stewards of our resources. We thank you for your support.
