This Lent, Matthew 25 is organizing a gift card drive to benefit Housing Transitions. Grocery and department store cards of no more than $25 each will be accepted. Cash offerings, which support an ongoing mission of helping the needy in our area, may be placed in the alms box. (Clothing donations should be made directly to St. Vincent DePaul Society on Westerly Parkway this year.) See Diana Van Duin, Lenten Drive Coordinator, for details. “You have and eat; give each day to someone who is poor to eat also.” (St. Raphael of Lesvos)
