EASTER CRAFTS FOR MARYKNOLL It's hard to believe, but Easter is right around the corner!!! Due to COVID, this year we cannot gather in a group to make Easter crafts in the cafeteria. Instead, you can make crafts at home. I have ordered a variety of simple Easter crafts, all peel and stick. I will be outside the school vestibule door, on the steps, on Saturday, March 6th, from 12:30-1:00 for everyone to pick up their crafts. If that time doesn't work for you, let me know and I can make other ar-rangements with you. You will have one week to complete your crafts. Please leave your completed crafts in the green Social Concerns bins in the church vestibules by the weekend of March 13/14. I will pick up the crafts on Sunday, March 14, after the 12:00 mass. We will be giving the crafts to retired Maryknoll Sisters in Ossining. Please call or email Maureen at 914-946-9334, MMCL16@optonline.net if interested

FOOD DONATION THANKS Thanks so much to all parishioners who donated food for the Interfaith Food Pantry in Thornwood. The director was so happy to receive it all! She said there were currently 55 families in the Mt. Pleasant area using the food pantry, so our food was greatly needed. Thanks also to Brian and Gail Morrow for helping to deliver the food. We will be collecting food for the food pantry every third weekend of every month. Please do not drop off food at any other time. Thanks! You can find a list of needed food items on our parish website. A food list is also posted on the bulletin board in the church side vestibule. Thanks so much to all for helping our neighbors in need!!
