Food Ministry

The mission of the Food Ministry is to provide multiple avenues of bringing food to those needing a meal.  From the short term meal needs of those temporarily shut in, food drives, to monthly sandwiches for the homeless and poor, the Basin and Towel food ministers attempts to provide for those in need of a meal.

Lunch Bunch
Is part of a coalition of churches, which has been providing lunches for over 20 years on Sundays for the homeless.  It is run through the Volunteers of America on Lawrence St. downtown.  The lunch bunch volunteers make bagged lunches four different times throughout the year.  This ministry was initiated because there were no soup kitchens or sandwich lines on Sundays. 

Our assigned times for the 2008 year are January 20th, April 20th, June 22nd, September 21st. Each lunch should consist of 2 sandwiches, a piece of fruit and a sweet.  Please bring lunches to the parish hall before Sat. Mass or between 7-11:15 on Sunday morning.  Thank you in advance for your generosity.

Food Collection Box
The Outreach and Assistance Ministry at St. Frances Cabrini does a food drive twice a year, in April and October.  To help meet the needs of local food banks throughout the other months, a food bin to denote canned goods and dry foods is located in the gathering space.  Please feel free to drop off food at anytime during the week.  Thank you for your generosity.
