Outreach for May

May is our month to work on Saturdays for the Food Bank. We will need at least three people each Saturday to distribute food outside the Pentecostal Church on Davenport Street in Somerville.  We need one person who can drive a van from Easy Street in Bound Brook to Somerville with the food.

Please contact Marlene by email if you can volunteer –  mficzko@optonline.net

So far we have only a few people who have volunteered so please consider spending a Saturday morning helping those in need. Thank you.

Parish Work Day

Place this Sunday, May 2nd on your calendar as our first Parish Work Day since the pandemic.

We will need wheelbarrows to haul mulch, pitchforks, shovels, and a general day to spruce up the church. Bring your trowels and work gloves and enjoy seeing your fellow parishioners out in the fresh air.

Outreach for April

The Outreach committee will be holding a food collection for the Somerset County Food Network on Sunday, April 25th

We will be collecting food in the church parking lot, beginning immediately after church services until 1:30. Please remember us while doing your grocery shopping. Thank you!

March Madness Squares

Just like our Super Bowl Squares, we will also be doing NCAA March Madness Squares as a small fundraiser for St. Martin’s. The final game won’t be played until April 5th.

Check out the Squares – instructions included in the spreadsheet – good luck!

Outreach – Easter Baskets & Children’s Clothing

Outreach is gearing up to make Easter a happy holiday for local children who may not otherwise receive a visit from the Easter Bunny. 

On Sunday, March 7th, we will be collecting Easter baskets, Easter candy and small toys in the church parking lot from 11:30 to 1:30. In addition, we will be collecting new and gently used children’s springtime clothing. The event will be rescheduled should the weather not cooperate. Thank you.
