Advent Food Drive

This year our Sunday School is hosting an Advent Food Drive to serve low-income working families in Orange County through an organization called Loaves and Fishes in Santa Ana. Inspired by the miracle of the multiplication of loaves by Jesus, the Loaves and Fishes ministry has been partnering with St. Joseph Church and other local churches to collect and distribute food to needy families in Orange County for the last 35 years.

You can participate in this food drive by bringing in boxes of pasta like penne, macaroni, or spaghetti for donation to Loaves and Fishes. Our goal is to collect 200 boxes of pasta for their grocery distribution day in January. We are halfway through our goal, which means we need to collect 100 more boxes.  The last Sunday to donate is January 8th.  A large donation box will be placed in the sanctuary to collect pasta boxes before and after the service. Thank you to all the families that have generously donated the pasta boxes so far.

Thanks for your generosity in supporting our Sunday School outreach.
Blessings,
Julie Mathew
