We are inviting parishioners to bring food items to decorate the church at Thanksgiving. Please bring your food donations to the Thanksgiving service to help spread God’s generosity. The food will be donated to Shelbourne Community Kitchen afterwards.
We asked Kim Cummins at the Kitchen what items would be helpful for us to collect at Thanksgiving. Here is what she suggested: Potatoes, yams, onions, carrots, beets, garlic, and even lemons. Squash and pumpkins are great, too. Other really helpful items are canned vegetables, stovetop stuffing, instant gravy mixes, and cranberry sauce. Outside of the holiday season, canned plain beans and toilet paper are in dire need this fall as well.
Please bring any of these items as your Thanksgiving donation so that we can help the Shelbourne Community Kitchen Pump Up Their Pantry!
