The Job Seekers Program is still accepting donations. The ability to serve the unemployed members of our community is a much needed ministry. Many have found our associates to be very helpful in their journey as a job seeker. You can use the Christian Service envelope from your bi-monthly envelop packet or send a donation directly to the parish office to the attention of John Strazanac.
