Just a Reminder--The need is great

With the continuation of the coronavirus pandemic, many families are still facing the challenge of putting food on the table. Please be generous to those in our community who may be hungry, and drop off some nonperishable food for Mount Carmel Guild and St Raphael’s Pantry. The need is greater than ever! Receptacles can be found at the doors of our churches.

At this time, St. Raphael's Food Pantry is especially in need of jelly and soup, as well as plastic and paper bags.

The Food Pantry Partnership will happily accept all types of nonperishable food and can always use pantry staples as well as basic hygiene and cleaning supplies. Thanks to your generosity, the pantry has been able to help so many people in need during this pandemic.

If you know of anyone in need, please let them know that the pantry (located at St Raphael’s Parish Center, 151 Gropp Ave, Hamilton) will be open from 9 to 11 AM on October 23 and November 6 & 20.

(Because of Covid 19, those needing food stay in their cars, pop their trunks, and the pantry volunteers load up the groceries.) Cars start lining up at 7:30 a.m. Pre-registration is not required.

Remember, we also continue to provide food donations to Trenton’s Mount Carmel Guild. Please place your donations in the receptacles at the doors of our churches.
