. MISSION EMERGENCY

Mission Emergency
This committee was formed in early 1980 with Anita VanSlambrouck as chairperson, to provide an emergency source of food for needy people residing in our parish when they experience circumstances that leave them without adequate nourishment.

Each year, during the three holidays (Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas), we offer needy families of our parish a special bag of groceries to provide them with a nice holiday meal.

Our pantry is open to all families living in St. Mary’s Parish on Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 12 Noon.  Please park on the street and use the side entrance of the rectory.

. NEWS & NOTES

We would like to thank the Postal Workers Union for the very generous supply of grocery items added to our food pantry. We are only in need of coffee, instant coffee, canned beef stew and pancake mix.


Please note: Please leave any donations of food in the breezeway between the church and the rectory.  Please do not leave bags of food in the vestibule of the church.  Thank you.

Thank you for your continued support.

Your food donations, preferred on first Sundays, are always gratefully received and appreciated.

Because our space is small, we cannot stock a supermarket variety, so please use our donation guide:

  1. Give only fresh, packaged, basic types of food requiring no refrigeration.  Please check the expiration date before bringing items to the church!

  2. Place donation in double-bags (paper-in-paper or paper-in-plastic).
    Please, do NOT tie plastic handles.

  3. If possible, give "most needed" foods (sometimes listed on Sunday prior to first Sunday).

Most-Needed Items
 • Canned Beef Stew
 • Coffee
 • Instant Coffee
 • Pancake Mix

Please check
expiration dates!
