OUR GIVING TREE

Our Giving Tree will be available on Sunday, November 30th. This year we are purchasing gifts for Lourdes House, Interfaith Shelter and Evergreen House.

Please take an ornament off the tree, purchase the gift, wrap it and then place it under the or beside the Giving Tree in our Church. Be sure to place your ornament on the package so we can identify where it should be delivered.

Gifts will be delivered to the charities on Friday, December 19th. Thank you for your generosity to the mothers at Lourdes House and families at Interfaith Shelter and those at Evergreen House.

Mary’s Helpers Food Pantry

Mary’s Helpers was established in 2008 under the supervision of Sister Sue Ann Steves.  Over the years the Food Pantry has established relationships with PA State Medical Center,  and other charitable organizations. 

The Food Pantry, Mary’s Helpers, purchases their food supplies from the Central PA Food Bank and receives donations from Prince of Peace Parishioners,  Matthew-25 Grants via the Diocese of Harrisburg and the United Way.  PA State Medical Center and the Central PA Food Bank hold classes to assist the needy in the area with dietary needs, blood pressure screenings and “Flu” shots. We rely on our dedicated volunteers to give assistance to the Food Pantry and to our Chairpersons.  Our volunteers are dedicated to the Food Pantry which Sr. Sue Ann Steves established and will continue to be of service to our local community.
