Souper Bowl of Caring

Its that time of year again (Super Bowl Sunday) when the youth of our parish join with thousands of other youth across the country to collect donations for those who are hungry and hurting. The youth of St. Columba will be at the entrance of our church after all Masses this weekend holding soup pots to collect your donations. Can you imagine what a dollar from every person attending Mass next weekend could do to help the needy? The younger children will have boxes in their classrooms to collect non-perishable food items, packages of socks and toiletries to add to our donations for the needy. Please be generous and show your support for this great cause sponsored by the youth of St. Columba.
