HELP OUR HUNGRY NEIGHBORS!

This Lent, the Blessed Mother's Sodality at Holy Name of Jesus has organized a parish-wide food drive to help fill the shelves and bags of the HOPE Community Services food pantry at St. Gabriel's in New Rochelle.  During this time of COVID-19, the need among our neighbors has never been greater!  We will be collecting donations of nonperishable foods for HOPE at all our Masses on the weekends of February 27-28 and March 6-7.  The folks at HOPE are especially in need of cereal, pasta, rice, meals-in-a-can, soup, canned vegetables and fruit, tuna fish, tomato sauce and beans, but any nonperishable food items would be welcome.  Please bring your contributions to the food hamper in the church vestibule on those two weekends.  Paper grocery bags (with handles) would be especially appreciated, if you have them; they make it much easier to transport and distribute the foodstuffs.     
We hope you will contribute as generously as you can to our Sodality's effort.  On behalf of all our hungry New Rochelle neighbors, we thank you in advance!  God bless you!
