Feed the Homeless

Knights and other volunteers from St. Ann Church packed up 170 chicken meals with rice, green beans and a cookie. These meals are then served to the homeless that come to the Salvation Army kitchen, those that are housed at The Lodge and the children at the St. Ann Neighborhood Youth Center.

The Knights and Ladies from the Rosary Alter Society, meet every third Wednesday of the month at the back door of the Salvation Army Kitchen (220 E Russel St.) to prepare and package meals for the homeless. We begin preparing the food at 12:00 pm and begin packaging the meals around 3:30pm for distributions that begin at 4:00 pm. If you would like to help out you can show up at the back door between 12pm and 4pm.

Several Knights helped with parish cleanup on Saturday March 25 from 8:30am to 1pm. Knights helped clean up the Kitchen, the grounds around the church, and interior of the church.

I would like to thank everyone that was able to come and help at our parish clean up day last Saturday. All your support has helped to make our school, church, and grounds even more beautiful.

Thanks again.
