Do you like to cook? Did you know Saint Bridget’s works with 3 different feeding ministries in Richmond?

We have opportunities to fit your schedule through the fall season, but could use your help on October 10th! Additional information will be provided ahead of each event. Thank you for supporting food security here in Richmond!

Gobble Gobble!

We are collecting Thanksgiving meal items to help those in need in partnership with Commonwealth Catholic Charities Dibert Food Pantry. Check the Social Ministries Bulletin Board for a full list of foods, and please bring items to the church before October 26th. Our Knights of Columbus will be collecting the regular items and also providing transportation of the Thanksgiving goods on their regular schedule.

 

Christmas Sharing is coming!

We are currently working with local partners to help make this Christmas season a special one for families experiencing difficulty. We are excited to be partnering with 3 local elementary schools and Salvation Army to collect items via our Angel Tree needed for Saint Francis Home and Liberation Veterans Services. Dates and information will be available soon. If you have a referral for this year’s program, please contact Jo Ellen Schneider at jschneider@saintbridgetchurch.org
