"BOXES OF JOY" COLLEcTION

The Middle School Ministry is collecting items to put together Boxes of Joy to give to St. Francis House Inn in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA! The boxes will then be given to kids right in the Kensington community. We have been told by St. Francis Inn that many of these kids don’t receive even one gift at Christmas. Let’s change that!


St. Francis Inn is "creating lasting change and uplifting lives, one helping hand at a time."  For more information on what St. Francis Inn does click HERE to be taken to their site.


FOR A LIST OF ITEMS BEING COLLECTED BY THE MIDDLE SCHOOL MINISTRY, PLEASE CLICK THE BUTTON BELOW.


Purchase the items that you sign up for and then the Middle School Ministry will be available Wednesday, November 20th from 5:30pm to 6:30pm for you to drop off your items in the Holy Eucharist Parking Lot Circle. Just drive around the circle, and we will collect your donated items. Thank you!
