“Reverse Advent Calendar” for Holiday Food Donations
St. Mark’s again invites you to participate in an Advent season food drive. Advent begins on November 27th, and our plan is to collect all donations so they can be delivered before Christmas.
Participating is easy. Each day, add an item to a box. On or after December 21st, we’ll collect your box* and donate it to a local food bank. To sign up please contact Richard Kearney (richardkeithkearney@yahoo.com or 201-928-0070). We’ll add you to our list and collect your box on or after December 20. Thank you!
