The presentation of the gifts at Mass is a very important role as it marks the beginning of the second major part of the Mass, the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
The idea for 40 Foods for 40 Days is a simple one – each parishioner donates ONE food item for each of the 40 days of Lent, February 14—March 24. The 40 Foods for 40 Days works well when all parishioners commit to donating 40 items of food during Lent and it’s most certainly in keeping with the spirit of Lenten sacrifice. This will certainly help our food cupboard in the critical fight against hunger in our area! We are asking you to make a real sacrifice by donating our most needed items.
