Lenten Mission 2026

The Corporal Works of Mercy are found in the teachings of Jesus and give us a model for how we should treat all others, as if they were Christ in disguise.  They "are charitable actions by which we help our neighbors in their bodily needs" (USCCB).  They respond to the basic needs of humanity as we journey together through this life. 

This Lenten season, we will focus on the Corporal Works of Mercy through donations to various local charitable organizations. We invite you to bring needed items for each organization throughout the week, and then join us at the end of each week for a Friday Lenten Meal, during which a representative will speak about their cause and collect the donations. 

A donation box will be outside the Parish Office.
