It’s BACK-TO-SCHOOL time of year again! Cataumet Village, a transitional housing facility in Falmouth, supports families coming out of homelessness. These clients, mostly mothers and children, are getting ready for back to school and need our help. We are filling backpacks for 15 children this year and collecting items and monetary donations to be brought to St. Michael by August 18. Add your name for the items you would like to purchase to the list:

The bin for the school supplies is next to the bookstore. We will purchase what’s left. Please help to fill the backpacks on August 24 before Vespers. We will deliver the backpacks on August 25. If you’re not able to purchase the supplies, please consider making a monetary donation to St. Michael Outreach with Backpack Blessings in the memo.

As always, thank you for your generosity as we care for those in need. If you have any questions, please see Anastasia or Soraya.

A Baby Center, Hyannis requested donations for:

• Desitin ointment for diaper rash
• Boy toddler clothing 2-5T
• Summer receiving blankets for babies

We will have a box at the church to collect items through June and deliver them to A Baby Center in the beginning of July.

Thank you for helping with this project as we strive to love our community!

Help give to those in need!

The Outreach Team currently has a project creating personal care blessing bags for those in need.

Our January outreach project is being planned with scarves for the homeless, thanks for the efforts of Vicky Abodeely who has been knitting all year!
