We need Easter basket components and lots of candy!Many children are guests at our Easter meal. Help us give each of them an Easter basket as a special gift from St. Mary! Please donate filled Easter baskets or basket making components (baskets, Easter grass-preferably paper, crayons, chocolate bunnies, ‘good for you’ snacks, toiletries, etc.).

In addition to Easter baskets, each meal comes with a small bag of Easter candy. We would greatly appreciate candy donations—mini/fun size wrapped candies are best. Unwrapped candy cannot be used. Please take your Easter basket and candy donations to the parish office by Monday, March 27th.

Make a donation.
