Food items, such as, peanut butter, tuna fish, canned corn, soup, bar soap, toothpaste, shampoo, toilet tissue can be dropped off in the metal drawers inside the vestibule of the Parish Office. Thank you to Denny & Jo Ann Davis for taking the food down once a week. Also, thank to Anne Donoghue and JoAnn Luehrman for volunteering in the pantry.
