Casa Maria has arranged to purchase turkeys for the families that visit the food shelf; based on averages we would provide meals for about 100 families, to be distributed on Sunday November 23rd.

Food requests for November:

.      Box of instant mashed potatoes

·      Turkey stuffing mix (box preferred)

·      Turkey Gravy Mix (can or package)

·      Canned Vegetables (green beans, corn, peas)

·      Cranberry Sauce

·      Canned Pumpkin

·      Juice or NA beverages for holiday meal​​

Financial contributions can be made any time through this link:  https://givebutter.com/casa-maria​    

Donations can be brought to St. Nicholas when you come to worship services, or during office hours on on Tuesdays,10:00 am to 3:00 pm.  

Note: we have experienced about a 20% increase in the number of families during the government shutdown on top of the eliminations of funds earlier in the year for food shelves. Donations from the cohort of Episcopal faith communities has been overwhelming and the food supplied by VEAP has been consistent, though reduced.

​

Clothing Donations:  Thank you for your generosity of children and youth winter clothing; the big give away was November 16th. We continue to need winter hats, scarves, gloves, and coats from children to youth sizes. Clean, gently used items are helpful to our process.

​Thank You for your prayers, volunteering and contributions.
