All Saints Outreach News

This year Christmas came early in the generous giving our parish community contributes each year. From the Giving Tree to the Christmas distribution at the Elks, we are so grateful to be able to share our blessings with others in our community. May you have a very Merry Christmas!

PREPARES - Our PREPARES ministry distributes diapers through our food bank. In November, we served 6 families. If you would like to help purchase diapers, our wishlist is here.

We would welcome someone who would like to train to be a PREPARES mentor - learning how to walk alongside a family with children ages 0-5. Contact Morningstar for more information.

Giving Tree - Thank you to all who donated to the Giving Tree for rental and utilities assistance. If you missed your opportunity, you can always use the blue envelopes in the pews or set up a one-time or recurring online payment here.

Thank you to the 50+ volunteers that came together last weekend on Friday and Saturday to make our Christmas basket distribution with the Elks a success! We gave food to over 350 families. We are so grateful for your help.

Give a gift of hope! Thank you to all who made a donation to CRS through our Giving Tree. We raised over $600 for our brothers and sisters around the world. Since January, due to federal spending cuts, 55 million people have lost aid. Many CRS staffers have also been laid off. Recently, the US facing staff was reduced by 40%. If you would like to make a gift, you can do so here or here. Open the PDF below to read more about the work CRS does to make our world a better place.
