“Bag a Month” Food Collection Program

The first full weekend of every month the Parish of Blessed Virgin Mary Queen of Peace and St. Veronica sponsors a “Bag a Month” food collection program for the needy in our local community. Each month, the week before the collection, we ask for donations of a full or partial bag of certain non-perishable food items, we have the recyclable bags at the entrances of both churches with the list of donations. On the first weekend of each month volunteers will be at the Parish Center Building at Queen of Peace before Masses on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning to accept donations of food and at St. Veronica’s. If you would like to help us with the program please call Jim Conrad @ 226-7420.

I was thirsty and you gave me drink”
