May 4 - May 5
The Women's Group will be sponsoring a children's summer clothes and sneakers drive. We are calling upon your generosity to benefit needy children in Manchester. Blessed Sacrament Parish ministers to families who have little and will happily receive the items that your children/grandchildren have outgrown. Would you be so kind to donate clean, gently used shorts/tops/sneakers? The target would be summer clothes for elementary school aged students. Of course, new clothes or cash donations will be enthusiastically accepted. Thank you for opening your hearts to these children in need.Read More -
