Easter Flowers for the Homebound
By St Mary Administrator @ 2:28 PM :: 360 Views :: Article Rating :: Human Concerns
 
Each year, as part of Lent, parishioners have the opportunity to share the joy of Easter with the homebound of our parish. And again, because of parishioner generosity (last Advent/Christmas), we collected enough money to buy flowers for all those Catholics in a nursing home, who are homebound, and are on the Communion list. That was 119 deliveries made by parishioners and Port Catholic students! That’s twice as many as what had delivered at Christmas. The beautiful spring plants were delivered along with Easter cards, made by 3rd and 4th graders, a palm and a bulletin. Again, our parish outreach was fulfilled by those who donated money, delivered the plants, made cards, and prayed for our homebound. Prayerful thanks.
