Our annual Easter Basket Ministry is underway! Last year, 120 local children were given a beautiful Easter basket filled with numerous healthy snacks, a few small toys, and, of course, a large chocolate bunny. Our goal is to provide 120 baskets again this year. Items needed for this ministry are available to choose from the SignUp Genius link below. Additionally, a poster board has been placed in the narthex with sticky notes listing several of the items needed to fill the baskets. If you would like to support this ministry but prefer not to shop, an option for monetary donations is available below. Checks can be made payable to St. James Catholic Church and sent to the parish office's attention: Beth Bush. If donating by check, please be sure to write Easter Basket Ministry in the memo line. We have changed our focus over the past few years to providing baskets filled with healthier snacks. It has been well received by the parents of our recipients. Snacks in individual sizes like trail mixes, granola bars, goldfish, applesauce, and fruit cups are a few of the items we use to fill each basket. Donations can be placed in the blue bin in the narthex labeled “Easter Basket Donations”.
All donations are due no later than Sunday, April 6th.
