St. John's Community Center Food Bank

Handicrafts for Charity

We support Saint John’s Community Center with food and monetary donations. We pay $1200 per year to the Capitol Area Food Bank which allows the community center to buy food from them. Saint John’s Community Center clients include low income and homeless individuals. For Thanksgiving and Christmas we supply holiday meals and gifts for the families. Guidelines for donated food are no soups, canned meats and vegetable with pull tops, bottled drinks, pasta, dried beans, rice, peas. Please make sure the food is within the sell by date range. The food basket is in the narthex (front of church). 

 

Loops and Stitches and the Sunday School class knit or crochet hats, scarves and other items for Trinity House (St David’s homeless population), Safeplace, and  knit,  sew, or crochet baby clothing for Brackenridge Hospital babies. The group meets in the parish hall at noon on alternate Sundays and enjoys some time stitching together! You may also donate items directly to the church office.
