This last Thursday at the pantry we were blessed with having student helpers from Bishop Stang High School in Dartmouth and from Saint Francis Xavier School in Acushnet as well as young family members of many of our regular volunteers. It was a delight to have so many additional people participating in the pantry. Where ever you might have looked around the hall at Saint Anthony's on Thursday you could see the smiling faces of our busy student helpers ... moving and setting up food, clothing and baby supplies; preparing meals; bagging fruits and vegetables; keeping the pantry entrance lines moving smoothly and more. We very much appreciate all the enthusiastic energy they brought to share with us and all the hard work they did. Thank you.
For additional food pantry information please contact the Parish Office at 508-993-1691 during office hours (Monday and Friday 8AM-3PM; Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 9AM - 4PM).
