A Christmas collection for families in need is done annually in partnership with Linda’s Legacy-Giving Back. For more information, please contact JEFF CULLEN.
 

Backpack Drive

 
Linda’s Legacy/Giving Back
 
Support Our Backpack Drive!  
Each backpack contains a hoodie, thermal underwear, socks, ski gloves, a knit hat, and a handmade Christmas card to be distributed to homeless men, women, and children on the streets of Baltimore & Washington, DC on Christmas Eve.  The cost to sponsor a backpack is $25. A complete backpack costs $25, but any amount is a great help.  Checks can be made to Giving Back-Linda’s Legacy and sent to the parish office.  Donations can also be made online using ONLINE GIVING (use Fund=Linda’s Legacy).  Thank you for your support!
