Parish Announcements – week of September 17th, 2023

Welcome to St. Alban’s Episcopal Church—we’re very glad you’re here!

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, 

This is the final tally for our Food Drive:

Goal-Enough vegetables for 7 days of meals (this equates to 

1750 servings total, at 250 servings per day, or 70 cans)

 Actual-Enough vegetables for 12 days of meals (this equates to 2952 servings total, at 250 servings per day, or 123 cans)

This is a 68% increase from our goal.

You were very generous and the Vestry, Fr. Michael, and I are very grateful, but not as grateful as the people that get a hot meal at the Rescue Mission.  What a joy for all of us to be able to help others that need a helping hand!

Please continue to raise the Rescue Mission and Charis House up in prayer.

Blessings to each of you, 

George Shamp  

Outreach Chairman
