Monthly Food & Cereal Drives
About Monthly Food and Cereal Drives
We collect non-perishable groceries, cereal boxes, canned goods, snack food and gift cards to grocery stores all year long. During the third week of the month the cereal is delivered to Amazing Grace Food Pantry in Middletown to fulfill our parish pledge to donate 200 boxes of cereal every month. Other groceries are shared with the Rocky Hill Food Pantry.
