Blessed Baking Update for 12/3 | St. Martin-in-the-Fields

Posted 12.2.21

From Blessed Baking Ministry leader Jane Good:

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope all of you were with or at least Zoomed with your loved ones.

I am so thankful for all of you. I love to see you and catch up on Fridays and I love to share your gifts with the St. James community on Saturday mornings.

Thank you in advance for baking this week. I look forward to seeing you and accepting your donations.

If you feel inclined, St. James is collecting $25 gift cards to grocery stores or big box stores/Amazon to give out to families to help male the holidays a little less financially stressful. Aldi and ShopRite are near St. James.

Thank you and stay healthy!

Jane

St. James School

Community Engagement Ministry Partner

St. James School serves the immediate under-resourced area of Ridge/Allegheny/Hunting Park. The school (grades 4-8) provides a private school education worth approximately $30k per student to nearly ninety students per year at minimal to no cost to the families. The staff and faculty also engage the residents through the Welcome Table and through many community activities. St. Martin's parishioners volunteer and contribute needed funding on a reliable basis and the commitment through the covenant creates a sense of stability and structure on both sides.
