Thank you to those who sent new underwear and socks recently. They were greatly appreciated byt several of our patrons. The tins from the harvest collection have been rolling in...amazing generosity of a lot of really wonderful families and young people. A real blessing this year was the incredible creativity and generosity of the young people and teachers of a local school who baked their own bread for the patrons of our soup kitchen. Also, a local school who've been collecting annually for many years broke some records in tin collection! Thank you all. There is good news everyone because there are countless good people who are part of something beautiful for God. Blessings and you are in our daily prayers.

Hello all.

Hope you are all well. The Friars have had a wonderful summer with lots of preaching and missions around the country, in the diocese and in Europe as well. Now we're back to basics at St. Patrick's Mission and loving it. However, the friars could really use the following items for the friary:

MILK (4 litres, whole/blue)

Butter

Tinned Tomatoes

Shampoo (for those of us with more robust beards :0 )

For the Soup Kitchen:

Tinned soups are always a necessity and we are presently very low. Any help to get us through to the harvest collections we would be grateful.

Tinned Tuna and Mayonnaise is always appreciated as well.

For the Clothing Room:

Socks

New Underwear

Jumpers and Jogging bottoms

Thanks for your support of our mission and be assured of our prayers.
