40 Cans for Lent

A CHALLENGE FROM THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS!  Fr. Charles Griffin Council 15793 of the Knights of Columbus offers a challenge to all families at St. Peter’s parish this Lent.  All are challenged to give “40 cans for Lent”!  All families are asked to donate 40 cans of food(or personal hygiene items) or comparable financial donation representing each day of Lent and Christ’s 40 days in the desert.  All donations will be given to the St. Vincent de Paul Food Bank to help with the ongoing need for their assistance in our community.  Any donation (food, personal hygiene items or monetary) should be marked “40 cans for Lent”  so the donations can be tracked accordingly.  For more information, contact the program’s coordinator, Joe Zupi at  740-773-4707, 740-772-4759 or by email at  jzupi2002@yahoo.com.  Joe can also be contacted for pick up if someone is unable to deliver donations to the church.  What a perfect way to increase our attention towards prayer, fasting, and alms giving this Lenten Season.
