Dear St. Margaret’s Family,
Mack West has made us aware that the Street Medicine ministry where he volunteers has a desperate need for sleeping bags. Parish leadership has committed to purchasing a dozen sleeping bags with funds from our Outreach budget. We are hoping that our parish community can help us double that commitment. The sleeping bags do not need to be fancy, but they do need to be new (and should provide adequate warmth). As you are all aware, it is getting colder now, so this is a critical need. Sleeping bags may be placed in the vestibule under the coat hangers, and Mack will take them where they need to go.”
Blessings,
Jen Burkhardt, Parish Outreach Coordinator
