Sharing Sunday
Your donations of nonperishable groceries help fill the shelves at the United Community Ministries Food Pantry and Catholic Charities St. Lucy Project. Your generosity has an immediate and direct impact on neighbors in need ... thank you! Sharing Sunday is scheduled every weekend in Lent.
Nail Sale
To raise money to support their High School WorkCamp trip this summer, Good Shepherd teens are sponsoring a Nail Sale during Lent. The nail is a reminder of the service the teens will be performing, as well as Christ's sacrifice on the cross. Thank you for your prayers and donations!
