“Share Your Shelf” Weekly Program
Thank you to St. Mary’s parishioners for your generous donations to our weekly food shelf collections.
July’s recipient: FOCUS Minnesota.
Food Shelf Needs for July 28, 2024
- Canned Meat (i.e., tuna / chicken)
Please do not bring opened packages. They will be discarded.
The need is greater than ever as food insecurity in our community continues to skyrocket. You can bring bags of packaged or canned food to St. Mary’s during weekday business hours, or on Sunday mornings prior to the Divine Liturgy. We also have a collection box for monetary donations to help food shelves purchase needed food items. Checks should be made out to “St. Mary’s” with “Share Your Shelf” in the memo line.
Tuesday, July 23, 2024, Simpson House Meal Serving
We are looking for ten people to assist us in serving the meal at Simpson House on Tuesday, July 23, 6:30 to about 8:00 PM. The volunteering takes place at Simpson House’s temporary shelter location at the site of the old Zion Lutheran Church: 128 W. 33rd Street, Minneapolis, MN 55408. Sign-up details are at the Missions and Outreach table after Liturgy.
