Hunger is an ever-present reality in our community. Local food pantries are experiencing a great demand for food. To help replenish supplies, Catholic Charities and the Archdiocese of Washington together are sponsoring the Lenten Food Drive. If you would like to participate, bring in your donations of nonperishable food items this weekend, March 22-23, using the grocery bags distributed last weekend. Our donations will benefit the Capital Area Food Bank and our parish Homeless Ministry. Thank you for all you do to help the needy among us.
