Sts. Peter and Paul Outreach Because of the COVID crisis, we are unable to support the Sts. Peter and Paul community as we normally do with a meal, gifts of blankets, clothing and warm winter coats. Please read the attached letter from our Ladies of Philoptochos to learn how we can respond to the needs of the people they serve during this difficult time. We are collecting some items - canned goods, blankets and coats. We will find a way to get them downtown.
The Cheese and Spinach Pita are delayed and we expect them early next week. Vessa will contact those who have placed orders.
