We meet the third Sunday of every month at the French Toast breakfast after the 10:30 mass.
Health and Nutrition
Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon is asking parishes to partner with them on their Interfaith Food and Farms Partnership project and help them draw awareness about healthy diet and nutrition by providing useful facts and information. This week’s focus is on Most people should aim for at least nine servings (4½ cups) of vegetables and fruits a day (sorry, potatoes don’t count!). Go for a variety of kinds and colors of produce, giving the body a mix of nutrients it needs. For more resources and information, visit www.faithandwellness.org!Vegetables & Fruit.
Non-perishables for St. Rita Parish: Thank you! Each week we are getting a 'barrel' of non-perishable goods/food to help the St. Vincent de Paul food closet at St. Rita's. It is very kind of you to help and the people are truly thankful. Your generous sharing continues Jesus' teaching of the Corporal Works of Mercy. Thank you for this witness! St. Rita serves approx. 200-250 people a week through their Food Pantry bags. Our helping St. Rita in this outreach is on-going—anything and everything helps…a can of food, a bag of rice or noodles, any non-perishable food items, bath soap, diapers… The Food Pantry barrels are located near the front doors of the church.
Volunteer Needed—someone (or a family) to deliver our collected Food Pantry items to St. Rita’s Parish (102nd/NE Prescott) once a month. Please contact Barbara Harrison for further information. This is a great ministry of the Corporal Works of Mercy.
