As a community, we strive to make every member of our parish feel loved and supported, no matter where life takes them. One of the ways we do this is through College/Military Connection. Near the end of each school semester, volunteers come together to prepare and send care packages to young adults who are furthering their education or who are serving overseas in the military. The care packages include items to help students tackle their finals with confidence. From snacks to helpful prayers, the care packages provide a needed boost and reminder of the love from all those back home as they undertake the stressful tasks of finals week. Military members overseas are reminded that they are loved back home, and our prayers are with them that they may stay safe as they bravely serve our country.
If you wish to help pack these care packages please call Lora in the parish office. Donations of items or cash are needed to pack the boxes and ship them. These are generally needed in November and April.
