Within our larger Community

Winter Boots Urgently Needed

There is an immediate need for men's winter boots at Siloam Mission. While dropping off our

parish donations, it was observed that many clients of Siloam were wearing thin shoes as

they stood outside in the meal line. This is not acceptable given our current

temperatures. Please bring boots and whatever winter items you can spare. The box at the

back of the church is emptied weekly. Remember to involve your children, as this is an

important lesson in giving to those less fortunate. Thank you and bless you.
