The need is great...please be generous!

Now that our churches are offering public masses again, please remember 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! To address this need, more food pantries have opened, but the resources are now spread out over additional food pantries. Please be generous!

While the Pantry can always use peanut butter, more pressing needs at this time include cereal, ramen noodles, pasta, pasta sauce, jelly, soup, and instant potatoes. Please place your donations in the receptacles at the doors of our churches.

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 open at 9 on August 8, and August 22. (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.
