Family
Promise – Can
You Help? St. Catharine is hosting families Feb 5-19
“Our”
families are
coming for two weeks in February and our Ministry Center will be their
home for
those two weeks. These are families that are part of the Family Promise
network
and are experiencing homelessness – something many of us
can’t even fathom.
There are many volunteer opportunities!
To
volunteer in any
capacity, click here,
and
at the top of the page, click “Find
Signups” and then enter psbiggs@optonline.net
for the email of the creator. Then enter the random code as
directed.
All Family Promise volunteer signup openings will be listed. Sign
up for
one or more opportunities. Not good with the computer but still
want to
sign up? Want more information? Contact Pam Biggs at psbiggs@optonline.net or
call
201-670-8760.
The
weekend of January 21 & 22, a list of needed items will be posted
in the
narthex after all masses. Please stop by and see if you can help in
providing
one or two of the needed items or to get more information on Family
Promise.
