At the December meeting, the Outreach Committee completed its work for the 2000 grant year and began looking forward to the year 2001. The committee prepared a schedule of food and related drives for the various organizations that St. Elizabeth's supports throughout the year. For those who are well organized, we decided to publish the list well in advance so you can put the dates on your calendar. For the rest of us, cutting out the list and putting it on the fridge may help somewhat.
All dates are Sundays.
Apostles' House operates an emergency family shelter that provides temporary shelter for woman and their children in addition to a men's rooming house. It is the only shelter in the Diocese that accepts women and their children. The organization also provides in-home stabilization services to families referred by DYFS in situations where the children suffer from abuse or neglect. All parishioners interested in participating in the St. Elizabeth's Outreach Committee are invited to attend. Cookies will be served.
