Divine Mercy Outreach Volunteers & News

As a safety precaution we are currently not taking walk ins in the parish office. Please call 703-729-2334.

There are many ways to volunteer in Divine Mercy Outreach (Adults and Teens). Below are some teens giving their time to help! You can also read our newsletter to learn more or click on specific ministries within outreach.

TEENS VOLUNTEERS

Thanks to Ian Beck for all his work to build new clothing racks for the Merciful Harvest event and the Little Flower Consignment sale for his Eagle Scout Project! What a blessing! This will help us to help others for many years to come! May God bless you!

Many Thanks to Catherine, Christine, Ryan and Brad for the putting together gift bags for those moving out of the shelter.

Thank you to James Nieven for his efforts to collect bedding for our Bed Ministry to help those in need for his Eagle Scout Project. Many families moving out of the shelter as well as those in our community who have no bed and are sleeping on the floor will be assisted by his efforts and the Scouts that helped him. We are so grateful to receive these items and thankful to all who donated them.  God bless you!

 

More Thanks

Many thanks to Joe Karpovich for his efforts to collect toiletries to be given to the less fortunate for his Eagle Scout Project. Thanks to Joe, the Scouts who assisted with this and the generosity of Ashburn Farms neighborhoods many families in need will be assisted. Divine Mercy Outreach is so grateful for the large amount of toiletries and the organized manner in which we received them. God bless you!

Sincerely in Christ,

Marianne Guidos,

Director

Delivery Volunteers

Volunteers are needed to take items such as beds, bedding, kitchen tables and chairs, misc household items, groceries or other items to families in need. This is a wonderful way to show Christ’s love to others.  Please consider helping those less fortunate.

Do you have a truck, trailer hitch(we have a trailer), SUV or minivan to help us transport beds and tables? Contact Karen Daniel  at 806-341-1798 or beds@sainttheresaparish.com
