St. Patrick's is holding its annual Lenten Food Drive to support local pantries serving those in need, and Boy Scout Troop #457 is coordinating the collection. Please pick up a grocery bag at Mass this weekend, and bring your food donations to Mass on March 23rd, drive around the Parish Center, and the Boy Scouts will unload your donation onto waiting trucks.   This year's beneficiaries include St. Martin’s Food Pantry, St. Jude's, Olney Help, So What Else, and Catholic Charities.
