The St. Vincent de Paul Society is continuing its practice of giving food for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner to our neighbors in need. This can only be done with the help of our parish. We are asking interested parishioners to provide uncooked food items to make a complete dinner for a family. Family sizes vary from 2-15 members. There is no preparation or cooking involved.
Suggested Dinner Items
frozen turkey (8-21 lbs.) dressing
potatoes
sweet potatoes
green beans
cranberry sauce
rolls
dessert
Any extra items are appreciated.
Collection of Dinners
Date: Saturday, November 18, 2023
Time: 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Location: Rooms 28/29 (entrance to the left of the front door at the end of the building, door #9).
Details:
There will be someone to help you bring in your dinner. Due to limited refrigerator and freezer space, we cannot accept donations before 11:00 a.m.
Please place food items in a cardboard box to help us with the collection and distribution of the dinners.
If you are unable to purchase a dinner, but would like to participate, you may provide a check payable to Good Shepherd with Thanksgiving Dinner on the memo line. We will then purchase the dinner for you.
The Good Shepherd St. Vincent de Paul members appreciate your generosity. When you celebrate Thanksgiving with your family, know that you have provided the same for a family in need.
