In an amazing act of generosity, St John Neumann parishioners donated hundreds of pounds of supplies during the Knights of Columbus’ collection event in support of the Little Sisters of the Poor on August 1 at the Neumann House garage. Goods including paper products, cleaning supplies, batteries, and many other essential items were among the donations, all of which were delivered later on that afternoon to the Sisters at their residence in Washington, DC.
As Sister Jeanne Veronique noted recently, “your donation of much needed and hard to find items…thrilled us all. These are dollars saved, which we are able to use in order to sustain a loving and safe home for our residents.”
Thanks to the Knights of Columbus for hosting this important event and to all the SJN parishioners who so graciously supported it. Working together we ensure that we “leave no neighbor behind” and that we continue to care for those in our community who need our help now more than ever. Vivat Jesus!
