Thanksgiving




Thanksgiving baskets were given out last Thursday 11/15/2012.  The line started forming at 8am and when we started giving out the baskets the line reached around the block, we gave out over 400 turkeys with all the fixings.  Fresh produce came from The Boston Food Bank.  We also distributed sandwiches to those waiting in line and gently used winter coats to those who needed one.  The woman in the pink coat was happy to get something warm to put on.  We received many donations from local schools.  Boy Scout Trop 333 collected 1,121 items on a food drive. Saint Anthony Ladies Group and Saint Anthony Youth Group sponsored food drives. Donations were received from the many people in our area who care for those who are less fortunate. Thank you for caring about your neighbors.
