Due to the unprecedented requests for assistance from Catholic Charities’ food pantries and in order to fulfill our obligations to the poor, Bishop Serratelli has authorized a Diocesan-wide food collection in all parishes and agencies on the Feast of Corpus Christi, Saturday/Sunday, June 17-18, 2017
We are all being asked to bring assorted food products on that day. Our Parish has been asked to provide pancake mix and syrup (regular or sugar free).
This collection, sponsored and managed by Catholic Charities, will directly assist those most in need by supplying Catholic Charities food pantries, as well as parish pantries. In addition to our parish, the entire Diocese of Paterson will join together in this effort.
Cash donations will also be accepted. Please mark Saturday and Sunday, June 17-18, 2017 as the food collection day.
