Can you help with the groceries?

As Christians, we have the duty to care for those in need in our community. One opportunity our parish provides to care for our community is through our Mount Carmel Guild Grocery Donations mission.

Each week, parish volunteers deliver grocery donations provided by our OLS/SA parish members to the Mount Carmel Guild food bank in Trenton. We collect and deliver an annual average of approximately 800 donated sacks of non-perishable grocery food and personal hygiene items to Mount Carmel Guild for distribution to the needy there.

To help in this mission, you are invited to leave non-perishable grocery donations in the wicker baskets located at each of the entrances to the OLS and SA church buildings. If you would like to help with collecting and delivering the groceries, call the parish office at 587-4372.
