October brilliance

The brilliance of many hands and hearts reflected in this picture... 500 lunches, 75 extra sandwiches, many notes of encouragement, 500 bottles of water, all sent out to Baltimore and Frederick with love from the 43 caring souls. Many others sent their gifts of Capri Suns, meat, cheese, lunch bags, napkins, mayo and mustard, bread and loaves, fruit cups, desserts and snacks... So the brilliant colors of autumn did show last Saturday.. in St Michael's hall...
Join us if you are able, in November on the 17th at 8 A.M. See you then!

June 16th Lunch making

June 16th will be upon us soon.
But first, the May lunch making went very well. The donations poured in the week of the lunch-making and we ended up with 523 lunches for our brothers and sisters in Baltimore and Frederick. We included water bottles and Capri Suns again, which make for a fine lunch indeed.
The generosity of our parish is significant and the compassion is beautiful. It is a joyful way to start a Saturday (even if it is 8AM).


The Bucknell Back-up: after a long time away at a higher learning facility, it appears that Jessica has a bit of a production snafu on her hands... sister Ann gets a kick out of it all.


In June we will definitely need some communication to coordinate the donations.
Anyone who would like to donate can send an email to ted4youth@comcast.net and it will be forwarded to everyone else on the list. If each donor would continue by "replying to all" then we will all be updated at the same time. Your help in all this is greatly appreciated.
For now, we have the following already donated:

500 lunch bags
500 mustard
500 mayonaise
500 Capri Suns
500 cheese slices
500 napkins

120 snacks (we need 380 more)
100 fruit cups (we need 400 more)
100 spoons (we need 400 more)

0 desserts (we need 500)
