PANTRY: The Holy Comforter pantry is able to purchase staple items from the Food Bank at a reduced price WHEN THERE IS FOOD TO PURCHASE. Recently, the Food Bank has been short of food. So we are asking the parish to pitch in. Beside the always need toilet articles, we also could use canned fruit and tuna fish. Thank you for your support.

CHRISTIAN FORMATION: Christian Formation classes are in DESPERATE need of volunteers to help set-up and break-down classes on Sunday mornings. It is a ten-minute commitment. Please sign-up in the Commons for any Sunday when you can spare a few minutes to help our youth and catechists. For more information, contact Teresa Ritzert.

PACEM: The PACEM season ended successfully on March 14. Seventy Holy Comforter parishioners served for a combined total of over 650 hours this season, with the "average" volunteer serving four shifts at the intake center. All volunteers are invited to attend PACEM's Volunteer Recognition and Awards Event on April 11, 6-8 p.m. Please RSVP to skipruns@earthlink.net indicating the number in your party. Please continue to remember our homeless guests in your prayers throughout the year, especially as temperatures remain cold. PACEM was able to provide some guests with sleeping bags and tents to help meet their physical needs until shelter re-opens next fall. PACEM is also in need of funding to continue is operations.
